Default whats the biggest you can resleeve a b16 motor?

i think ive seen 1.7 something.... is that it?
im thinking re sleeve 1.6 block
or should I get a 1.8 block and later resleeve(I dont think I can afford to get a 1.8 , pistons rods and resleeve all in one shot). Im thinking since im on somewhat of a tight budget I should just work with what I have.(but im still worried that I wont flow enough air for my turbo)
any ideas?

Why not resleeve it and drop in a 1.8l crank when you have the cash? If not leave it alone. How much power are you looking to make? There was a sleeved 1.6l (1.74l) on here making just over 500hp. Just my .02 Good luck.

Go with a 1.8 it's gonna cause you less hassle, and you'll be able to make
nice power(I.E. torque) "as is".

Golden eagle can hook you up with a deck plate, 84mm bore sleeves and a eagel stroker crank and you end upp with a 2,2l with 1,75 rod stroke raito.

I have boosted a few b16a's, trust me its a world of difference between the two. With you large turbo you are better off going with the 1.8, and then later resleeved that to a 2.0 liter. You can make power and torque so much easier with the larger displacement.
