The end result of tuning a DOHC setup will be the same for all 4 stroke gasoline motors so there is a lot to read up on from other sites (Honda/VW ect).

Here is the first link I found (im on my laptop away from my computer) and it echo's what all the other sites confirm. The DSM ones are very in depth:

They mention it in the story above, dont rely on anybody elses experience tune your car one step at a time. The track and the guidlines on topics like above will confirm what a dyno (expensive) cant. Im looking for a DSM spreadsheet a guy made and posted, "advancing intake while retarding exhaust will move power#####".
