Might want to start with your "S", "E", "A", "R", "C", and "H" keys, unless they're broke- your answers will be found

 

What do you mean by high boost? Sleeves, pistons, rods, bearings, valvetrain, fuel system, a few gauges, engine management & custom kit should make you safe for "high boost".

 

Replace your redline with an aftermarket one!

 

as far as the block goes, sleeves, rods and pistons.

as far as raising redline, you need to work on the head. valves,retainers, springs

 

how much power do you want? thats the most important question..

good idea, lol

 

You'd be better off spending sleeving money on a good bore/hone job and an aftermarket ECU. Unless you have a H22. My 0.0020..

are you saying boring/honing stock sleeves is better than buying aftermarket sleeves?

No he is saying that not everybody should buy sleeves when they are boosting. Its just a new bandwagon. If you are only making 200whp there is no need for sleeves. What is really important is your engine/fuel management which will keep everything together if a tune is good.

agreed, there are people pushing over 400 on stock internals...Tuning/EMS is VERY important..
