I have a 96' gsr that i am hopefully going to turbo, i am rebuilding it with all low comp. pistons and forged rods, i want to run about 13 or 14 psi but am not sure if the stock sleeve will hold up or not, cuz that would be some money saved?

 

oh yeah and its going to be running on a garrett t3/t4 with a .63 a/r turbine, and a custom made mini ram horn

 

even 1lb of boost requires sleeving


not..... search for what you want to know... probably under "stock block". You have a lot of reading and research to do

its sarcasm buddy

 

no block gaurd stock sleeves 81.5mm bore

 

what are your power goals?

 

dont measure your goals in terms of PSI because its an irrelevant measurement. Also, you probably dont need aftermarket sleeves or want a block guard. There are several cars in the upper 400s safely on stock sleeves and i know there are more beyond that even....

 

yeah after i did some research i dont need a sleeve but most people say to put a block gaurd in but now im not sure what to do, what is th downside to having it?

 

downside to having it without machining is distorting your cylinder walls, thus causing irregular wear. also, blockage of coolant passageways causing overheating.

14 psi of boost. stock sleeves with forged bottom end and a great tune would do wonders

 

Thanks alot i think that the stock sleeves, with the forged bottom end seems to be the way to go!
