L92 motor: Heads + Cam combo or Turbo Hello everyone
I have a 2011 reg cab gmc sierra. I swapped the ol' 5.3 for a L92 6.2 crate motor. It is currently running a full exhaust and CAI. Now im looking for more. I started reading all these threads about heads and cam combos to run but I stumbled on hundreds of combos and don't know where to go from here. I'm looking for a combo that would get me good power and most importantly have good drivability. This is my daily and over here we have 120 degree noons all year long. My first idea was to run 255 trick flow heads and a 114 LSA cam. I also started thinking about a turbo kit from trick performance. Their kits look complete and have good quality. I'm completely stuck on whether to go with a turbo kit or heads and cam combo. Can you guys please help me out and tell me which way you would go, and which heads and cam you would recommend if you think that road would be better.
Thanks in advance and im sure I'll get my answer.

Depending on how much power you want and how driveable you want it to be.
If you're ok with 500rwhp then get a nice set of ported heads and a medium-ish cam and be done with it alot cheaper than a turbo. If you want 600rwhp+ then turbo is your only choice.
