u could make 250hp on a completely stock motor easily and it will last for quite a while with a good tune, but chances are u will want to turn up the boost later on, the question is how far do u wanna push it later on down the road? 300? 350? 400? 600?

golden eagle sleeves and a pnp is like going to a knife fight with a tank if your shooting for 250hp, save your money, if i were u, i would do a simple cp piston and eagle rod combo with stock sleeves, unless u are planning on pushing it past 450hp, then go ahead and sleeve it for piece of mind
