Default Opinions on Turbo Heads

I am currently building a 365ci Ls2 for boost. Car is a street car M6. Will be running a B.W. ST80 turbocharger. Not all about ET's...Just want a fun fast highway car. I have a great set of cnc ported 65cc L92's with a radius valve job that were originally for an NA build. Now im going turbo Can I use this head around 10-12psi? looking for around 6-700hp also you guys think 9.5cr will be good for the street on this setup? Thank you.

Use the heads you already have. Make sure it can rev to atleast 7krpm.
The 9.5cr will work great.

Your heads should work just fine with your setup. No need on finding new ones or spending the extra money.
