Default Any NA people with heads?

I'm looking to entertain the idea of getting performance heads and an aggressive cam package. I'm looking for getting the most out of my car NA (though I may have a little something to spray sometime soon). The only reason I made a thread for this is most NA guys just do bolt ons and call it quits, I can't see too many people who have really gotten into making an NA monster.

I know nismo makes a set of heads with smaller combustion chambers (or something) that increases the amount of compression in the engine. I would be curious how much we can pick up from a set of well designed heads/cams like that. with proper ecu management of course..

I want to do something like this eventually but building an NA monster will take a whole new VQ35, so I'm going to wait until the current motor goes before that buildup starts.

I have seen the Nismo heads with a titanium valve train that is able to handle 8500rpms. Of course, you would need a lot more work on your bottom end.

Tomei has some very nice aggressive cams, although I think Espirit just put some out as well. Nismo has the S1 competition cams which are little more aggressive than their R-tune.
