The only reason to set valve non-stock is if you have a custom cam and do what they recommend.

For spark plugs, start with stockers and then examine them after running in the engine. If they show signs of overheating go colder heat range (see the owners manual for heat range).

for a turbo car it might pay to run the exhaust clearances a little looser due to the extra heat they are going to see. Talk to a cam grinder, they should be able to give you some advice.
