PSI has zero relation to sleeve failure!

with an FMU it`s not recomended to go more then 9 psi of boost . and with an FMU and 8 psi it`s recomended for you to leave the factory injectors .

Listen guys.......<FONT SIZE="2"> PSI has no relation to sleeve failure by itself</FONT>. NA guys crack sleeves so, where is the relation? Peak cylinder pressure and the rod angularity that this peak pressure occurs are the deciding factors. A better question would be, "What WHP can my stock GSR sleeves handle".

your stock pistons will crack before your sleeves... get pistons before blockguard
