Go for the turbo more air and the heads got no choice but to swallow it

I know nothing about Case heads, but if the heads aren't efficient enough to "swallow" the increased air, then what's the point of a better turbo?

Save up and do both!

I agree, head work first. You can only force so much through a small opening. JW

Air and Fuel !!! Air and Fuel Air and Fuel. Not Rocket Science. Buy the Turbo !!! Dont touch exhaust side of case head. Too big already. Nock the spiral staircase down on the intake side. Buy some head gaskets and do it yourself. Felpro. Better and cheaper than stock. If you dont have screw in injectors dont piss with pencil heads. I saw a set of 2290 heads on here for $600. Dont be afraid to turn some wrenches and HAVE FUN!!!!!

One of the biggest mistakes made in a modest setup (under 300 HP} is too big of a head. Don't know what your goal is but go easy on the head work. KSG is right, too big on the exhaust side already.
