Need some advice from the turbo VETS!!!
Well guys (or girls if it applies), I have a H22 with a GT35R and stock internals. The rings are letting go and I am faced with couple of options.............
A. Do I just buy a set of Mahle pistons, eagle rods and hone it?
B Do I tear it down, send the block off, have it sleeved and then buy a set of pistons/rods?
What do you guys think? I just cant see spending money to sleeve it if I dont have to. Its a solid deck block so Im not really worried about the floating cylinders.
Thanks.

Re: Need some advice from the turbo VETS!!! (super-hatch)
Im just not sure of the long term outcome with the Mahle pistons. I cant just use forged pistons with the cylinder coating the H22 has. I was making close to 400whp on stock internals at 12lbs.
