I must say that's an incredibly poor choice for a cam and that is the root of your problem here...
A vacuum canister can help improve the vacuum signal by giving a sort of plenum for the vacuum to build into but it won't work miracles. The only way to pick up five inches of vacuum is drastically reduce the amount of valve overlap.
