Default Motor Build for Turbo Application
I'm in the planning stage of building my motor for turbo application. I'm buying a set of wiseco forged pistons. Do I need to have my block sleeved? I was told that the K block is just like the H22, mylar sleeve, therefore, I need to have my blocked sleeved. Anybody with experience please respond. Thanks.

How much are you planning to boost? That might change what you need to do to your motor.
