Your simple practice should be...
1- make the best possible sealing points... hence the zero-clearance side seals.
2- give the apex seals a flat surface to run-on using something like my sparkplug area cooling mod.
3- Make the AFR's spot-on with help from something like my free Excel AFR Corrections Program or any other autocorrect system.
4- And probably the toughest... center the combustion peak-pressure around 45 degrees atdc. This is where most people fall short... they go for what is called a safe ignition map.

If you follow these simple ideas you will have the highest horsepower possible at what ever boost you run, even NA.
Too complex...

1) Strap car on dyno
2) Adjust fuel maps
3) Adjust ignition timing maps
4) Go back to #2 and #3 until you're satified

This is how I tune my cars for highest horsepower, even NA...

Oh, here's a secret: this works for piston engines too...
