Yeah lots of ppl are. 84.5 is generally accepted as the absolute max for a boosted B18. However head gasket thickness between the cylinders is very thin. Watch out for blown head gaskets. NA guys push 85mm

84.5mm here

Muckman is right tho, moost FI guys wont go past 85mm.

If you start at 81, 82, 83 mm you'll have lots of times to go .5 over for a hone, etc.

A couple months ago you were trying to sell a mostly stock car, now it's boosted with a sleeved 86mm block? Right.

The Innes racing civic runs an 85mm bore and they do fine, as do a few other cars. I think mattcivic had an 84mm block and melted some pistons, so he's going to have to bore to atleast 84.5mm. Plenty of people start out at that size from the get-go, and I think you'll be fine.
