limit on stock sleeves..hp/boost
 

lets say i know this guy with a gsr swap in his hatch..and the drag kit he has is fun and all...but it needs to be a bit faster. exactly how much can stock sleeves hold? is 350-400whp impossible? would this guy be better off just building a sleeved bottom-end? this guy is me and i want more speed. 260whp & 12.9 is fun, but i know it can get way funner. any help for me?

Ive seen it done before.

well, i guess i should add a twist....i realize this wont be the most reliable car on earth, however, will it be reliable enough to drive it fairly regular? i have a truck that i drive everyday. but sometimes i get bored and drive the hatch. so would it be better to just sleeve it or keep stock sleeves and run about 12-15lbs off a t3/t04e?

there is a 652whp running around somewhere on stock sleeves. lasted a whole season if i remember correctly.

Are you referring to a completely stock bottom end or stock sleeves with forged internals?

It sounds like you are referring to a completely stock bottom end. If so, I'd keep it under 300 whp if you want it to last for a while. However, there are several guys on here that have made insane power on completely stock bottom ends.

Jason ( STOOPID ) has tuned many Hondas w/stock bottom end making over 500whp +

David Aiwase CRX 520whp 10.6 @ 138 // Matt Vanwie Civic 776whp 10.3 @ 148 // Jeff Valentin delSol 520whp 11.7 @ 124 (pump gas) // Viet Do Teg FoDo 527whp 11.5 @ 127 (pump gas) // Arron Lopez Civic 654whp 10.3 @ 142 // Branden Kelsoe RSX 515whp 11.8 @ 120 (stock engine) // Stan Sumirat Integra 687whp 11.1 @ 133 // Duy Bui 95 240SX 565whp 10.81 @ 127 // Aldo Mireles 566whp 10.71 @ 137 // Garret Stanley Ford Ranger 1017whp @ 21psi// Onix K24 civic 512whp 11.2 @ 129
