Might want to start with your "S", "E", "A", "R", "C", and "H" keys, unless they're broke- your answers will be found

What do you mean by high boost? Sleeves, pistons, rods, bearings, valvetrain, fuel system, a few gauges, engine management & custom kit should make you safe for "high boost".

Replace your redline with an aftermarket one!

as far as the block goes, sleeves, rods and pistons.

as far as raising redline, you need to work on the head. valves,retainers, springs

You'd be better off spending sleeving money on a good bore/hone job and an aftermarket ECU. Unless you have a H22. My 0.0020..

No he is saying that not everybody should buy sleeves when they are boosting. Its just a new bandwagon. If you are only making 200whp there is no need for sleeves. What is really important is your engine/fuel management which will keep everything together if a tune is good.
