Running 5psi?

I wouldn't turbocharge a stock bored block, but that's me.

I know that is low HP, but like you said it is a stock block, and I don't want to push it too far.......So is 9:1 the ideal compression ratio for turbo??

220 on a b16? Why not have a higher goal? Im making 276whp on 11psi and it runs like a dream no problems here.

A stock B16A will make 220 WHP and beg you for more.

no, the weakpoint of the b16 is the ringlands, they'll go before the rest of your bottom end gives out. With pistons and rods you should be fine for most reasonable goals. With only a 220 whp goal, you don't really need...anything if you want a bit more leeway you can lower the compression with a headgasket.

Care to elaborate on what you mean by "have a problem" with the sleeves?
