Default Valve Job

Hey guys! i currently own an 03 s2k with 93k miles on it. I have been having misfiring issues for the past couple months now. I have done a couple of things but nothing seems to fix the problem. i started having codes P0102(misfire Cyl.2) and p1399(random misfire). Now it started throwing me all the misfire codes. The car feels like it runs fine to me. I took it to a Honda dealer today and had a diagnostic test done. My compression on cyl 2 & 3 are way low.. he said basically they are out. They said it is highly likely i have bent valves, the only way to tell is to open the head. My mind is set on a valve job. I plan to go forced induction in a year or so. I want to just change my valves,retainers,springs, etc...As far as parts go, what do you guys recommend, and what parts should i change? I see a lot of people on here recommend Supertech valves. My goal is to push no more than 400whp. should i stick with OEM parts and get ap2 retainers and keepers? any info will help me greatly.
Thanks!
