costs about 1500 to fix the trans and getting it bored means bigger displacment which means more power...it also depends on the shop that your getting it done at when it comes to the price...make sure you research places to insure good work

Well the stock b20 sleeves are thin. Alot of people get it sleeved so they can run high boost. Getting it sleeved will run you anywhere between 800-1500 bucks. ya dont have to get it sleeved. If ya are running it N/A then ya should be fine. Only time ya usually run into problems with the b20 sleeves and when ya boost them.

Where the hell are you getting your trannys fixed? You can buy a used one for a couple hundred bucks.

it should run about 600 bills to fix. shop around first. 700 just to look at it is ridiculous

if you can afford it of course you would be better off with sleeves.
