Default when to sleeve?

If your planning to turbo, lets just say a b18b, when would sleeving be necessary? At what number of boost or power made should sleeving be considered?

boosting over 12psi my conservative suggestion. but I would still take it up to 15psi on stock block if it was me. but it is a good idea oto sleeve over 12psi.

thats a pretty safe bet. Ive heard of b16a being boosted to 24psi stock without problems..but i dont think they would hold that everyday.

If your going to run a high boost honda daily doing the bottom end is a good idea.

Its pretty much like this...run your stock block until it blows up..then get it built right and run more boost.
