well even if they were the same thickness of oem sleeves they are made of a far stronger material... but honestly 85mm does not look like oem thickness, granted its not as thick as a stock bore sleeved motor...
600ish on the dyno. The motor had made almost 700, but it was just over 600 when it cracked the sleeve. t72, don't remeber psi. Not the only one I've seen fail, but the most recent. My opinion, it's better to leave the walls thicker and stronger and let the turbo do its job.

I've ran as much as 35psi. Jason Hunt ran as much as 45psi with 1/2" head studs in the coupe.
