Default What cam?

I have a 78mm turbonics front mount turbo on a 6.0 forged engine with 317 heads. I have a ls6 cam in there right now also i have a lunati cam i can put in there the specs are, 222/228 with a 114 ls. I want to be able to max out my turbo and get as muh hp as i can without my cam holding me back. Should i get something different or will one of these work? I know you dont need a big cam for a turbo but i think the ls6 might be a little small.

You don't need a big cam to make power. If you feel you need to change, Viginia Speed has some nice cams for turbo applications.
