    EDIT: forged pistons/rods, eGay turbo kit and replace the charger with Garrett T3/T4 turbo on 8 -10psi, new valve seals, dual valve springs, OEM headgasket, chipped and tuned by Scotty, new engine bearings, new rear main seal, freshly honed cylinders, HKS boost controller .

    Sound nice and reliable?
    if your going as far as a fresh hone on the block, get sleaves then you are safe @ 10 psi at least with your high compression. make sure to put some good rod bearings in as well especially if your running higher compression

    If its possible to replace the sleeves in basically a "backyard mechanic" type setting, then i might think about it. I hear upgrading sleeves can get pretty expensive...

    Also, who makes a good rod bearing set?
