Quit pulling numbers out of your *** and spreading bad information!

I think the Jeff Evans tuned stock internal D making 375whp on 28psi proves your theory wrong.

Sleeving is generally a peace of mind thing. There isn't a set PSI or horsepower where you MUST have sleeves. Most people wouldn't make more than about 400whp on a D or 500whp on a B without using sleeves just to be safe. Personally i'm going to sleeve my GSR engine once i rebuild so that i have nothing to worry about....regardless of the power i plan to make.

exactly..


id be more concerned about how much power you want, and then determine what boost will get you there...

it DEPENDS ON THE TURBO..

 

There are so many people making 400whp on stock sleeves now, it's all about the tune.

 

it is all about the tune like everyone else has said like right now im still on stock sleeves but with a piston/rod setup on a b series and im pushing 20psi on somenights and about 14psi daily

i didnt pull them out of my ***, i was being sarcastic and partially honest at the same time.
if youre using a gt series turbo, anything above <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by zeimbo &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">8lbs</TD></TR></TABLE> is gonna yield over 400hp
and if youre using like a 60-1, anything above <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by zeimbo &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote"> 14lbs</TD></TR></TABLE> is gonna yield over 400hp.
yes, you can run a 14b turbo at 30lbs and it will last a month or so, or a td05 at 35lbs and it will last a week. i was trying to be general while not being too much of an *** since he didnt understand my first comment.
i was just trying be low because the d series and h series stock sleeves are sh1tty and have problems with boost imo.
