what's best for FI...
stock spec valve clearance or tighter than stock valve clearance?
i heard that tighter valve adjustment will result in increase air flow but too tight will wear out the valve/valve components.
so which is better or does it matter? will there be any significant gains?

What is this crap?
Re: what's best for FI... (_Endless_)
the "tighter" the clearances, the further the cam can push the valve down into the cylinder, so you do breathe a littel better. with a turbo you're pushing so much volume into the cylinder i dont think its as big a deal than with a NA motor, which is trying to suck as much air as possible out of the atmosphere.
i wouldnt run them tighter than the spec. theres no real reason to do it in my opinion. its probly ok to run them a little tight but within spec...but i wouldnt see why.
