dont sleeve it unless your ready to build the entire thing. Theres no point otherwise.

its not about getting power""", its about losing it due to friction...

Better clutch and LSD that trans. When you get some money after that to make more power, then you can actually use it instead of just spinning your wheels. Better in the long run to set up the car for power, then add the power. IMHO
