Running too lean, over revving, the list is eternal.

Yes, but are you sure you would know a good tuner if you saw one?

I've seen an engine blow right in front of me on the dyno.

Denso spark plug came apart and went into the cylinder.

So start with OEM plugs, full oil, full coolant, good tuner, I think you'll be good
