Default Question about sleeves?

ok im planning on going turbo this winter and have been looking at sleeves and such. i found this darton sleeve kit and was interested in it( http://www.darton-international.com/kit_sale.htm ) and was wondering if anyone here has used it and how good would it be for say an almost daily driver (i have a beater but cant stop drivin my car its fun) and how would cooling issues be and such...

i also read the post about the benson sleeves and it looks very good.


i was plannin on 84mm sleeves on my b18c5, my outlook is that i would like to get around 400 plus whp.

If I was you I would just go with benson sence the sleeves he uses are dartons.
Just Benson spec.

If nothing just do a search on other peoples posts and you'll find out whats going on.

The Darton sleeves work fine on the street. We have many of them out on the street.

Any sleeve is only as good as the installer. I highly reccomend benson (and earl for assembly if youre having someone else do it). Between the cust svc. and quality of work, the $ is more than worth it imo.

good luck
