WCS: Inline does sleeving for $900 Also, you can try www.exospeed.com..they do a good job for about the same price. $1500 seems a little high for just sleeving...unless it includes boring as well.

Should I stick with 9.5:1 compression...or would 9:1 be better? I'll PM you my goals and my plan on getting there if you want/need.

I've heard various things about GE. I like AEBS because I only hear good things.

The $1500 includes all shipping charges to CA, sleeves, boring and block cleaning.

I'm not saying that's the best deal out there, I'm open to suggestions.

What sleeves does Inline use?

Everyone says that the lower the compression the better for boost. I agree if you're running a stupid amount of boost, but the higher the compression + more boost = more power BUT more chance of boom.

9.5:1 has been good to me. My car runs very well when I'm not boosting and it spools quickly when I do.

I like having the power that I do. I've talked to a guy that runs 22 psi on his B18C1 (fully built) and he runs 9:1. He says he wishes he'd have gone with a higher CR. He pushes 400+ whp.

I'm staying at 9.5:1

GEM sleeves are known to sink, even the owner has admitted they do.

Inline uses Darton sleeves. John today told me their the best they've seen...and they've seen alot!

Also, just FYI, Inline told me that a LSD(Quaiff included) can handle up to 450whp MAX...they tested it up to 500, and it splintered. Just thought you might like to know.

Thanks for the info :goodjob:

They may have seen a lot, but have they any experience with AEBS sleeves?

Thanks for the info Spike, you're doing a lot for me.

Depending how much power you want, since you're an addict and all, ross pistons and groden rods are probably the best way to go. They should handle all the power you can dish out.

JE/Eagle will hold pretty good, but I've seen people throw rods at 400whp.
