    For best value for money, you could buy 4 different 20 valves and have them sitting in your shed as spare. As he said ^^^ spend money on a computer and camshafts.

    For extra revs. If you have a spare motor at home, you can always rev yours much harder, which is fun. After breaking a few, then you will have the experience to have an opinion, and exactly what caused the failure.

    I think too many people are too carefull about what oil to use, how long to warm it up etc, and they don't really know why. Don't waste your youth. Rev the motor cold I say!!!

    And when you have a few dead blocks, then think about different conrods or whatever it is that breaks.

    Spend money on camshafts, go fast and hard I say.

    but yeah if he doesnt have a programmable ecu yet, thats step one. make sure your tuner knows to lean on the timing, thats where the power is.
