build the car to handle the power first. then put the power to it. its easier and most of the time less costly

my friend was gonna build his head but didnt n bent valves n broke guides n snapped a few lifters, the valves hit the cylinder wall and lots of extra money cuz he put a way bigger turbo n 30psi with stock 4g63 motor

75 shot is the max you can safely put through without breaking things.
