Your head is already ported and polished from the factory.
Unless you want to run an insane amount of boost, or lots of NO2 your stock pistons are fine.
Swap the cams, and get a lighter flywheel.

Barely. The work done by the factory on the ITR heads is minor. Nothing like a full P&P by a good company (Portflow, BCE, etc.)

if his gonna go all motor i think its best if he gets a 2.5" exhaust.
besides the stock one is 2.25" already(with a few bottle necks) so another 2.25" will not be that much of a difference.
