alright so I blew my 1st set of ringlands at 10psi of boost running hondata s200. My 98 GSr has 61k. Anyway if I rebuild the motor with forger d internals and a block guard is it possible to have the motor last just a turboed WRX or EVo if I only run 8psi daily and don't beat the **** out of the car?

I have spent so so much money since I went turbo but I know it's part of the territory. I just don't want to rebuild my motor and then have the sleeves go at 8psi. In that case I might just turn it back to just having bolt ons. I really would like my car to last another 2 or 3 years atleast since I have only had it a year. any of you guys run built turbo integras for a number of years of minimal finance. I mean after you did a rebuild unless you did it right from the start? Please I am stuck here and need feedback. thank you so mcuh for any advice or experience shared.

 

Stock sleeves have been proven to withstand 600whp+. From a daily driving perspective, if youre looking to keep it at 8PSI daily (no matter how large your turbo is), you wont be pushing the limits of the stock sleeves.

You can definitely do a mild build without sleeves and be just as reliable as any car on the road. Make sure its tuned right and youre fine. Even the most expensive build can be ruined with aggressive timing and insufficient fuel.
