Default Top End Rebuild!!!!

I have a few questions as to how and what to do for my NA top end rebuild. I was planning on port and polish, bigger cam, titanium valve springs, bore the throttle body, and deck the cylinder head for better compression. I have heard of many various types of set ups that people have in their NA 944's. Should i use my NA cylinder head, or a turbo head? What type of cam is best? Please feel free to share your set up and horsepower increase!! It will make me more motivated to get this done!!!

port and polish- ok

bigger cam?- www.jmengines.com

titanium valve springs? - overkill

bigger throttle body? - you going w/ bigger pistons?

deck cylinder head?- plan on less valve clearance and you'll need an adjustable cam gear if you go very far- better off w/ some euro pistons

n/a cylinder head is ok- turbo has bigger intake valves

SEARCH is your friend

most mods to improve power on n/a's include putting the car into the euro map - there is a link to this somewhere- euro pistons, intake, lightened flywheel, chips and exhaust.
