Default What performance do you get from .5mm os valves?

Most cars that I've heard getting Os vavles are FI cars.

My set up is for Na and I have found a great deal (locally) on SI .5mm os valves.

What benefits (if any) or set backs (if any) will result if I decide to use these valves? Would there be more variables like cr, cam size to determine if they will be useful or not? Thanks guys.

i was talking to Tom at Portflow about this, he sed from his own experience, he hasnt seen any gain at all. he told me that when he used to do the L'Natural CRX, he tried oversized valves, and it lost HP. now for forced induction thats a different story, HTH
