some guys on here have pushed 400+whp on stock sleeves (jinx for example), it just depend how good your tuning is. on stock sleeves personally i wouldnt go above 12psi, but thats just me...

19 PSI with Hondata. 20-23 PSI with a big turbo and 720cc injectors. I run 19 psi on a 18 g turbo, crower rods, srp pistons, 9.2:1 compression and hondata. Would run more but injectors are at 90% and the turbo is to small. Only got 333 horsepower to the wheels.
