    I think I talked with you about 3 weeks ago at the meeting at North Poing Mall ... you said you're making ~380WHP at 18psi with Hondata s100, right ? I'm having the black 95 Civic with a turbo D in there ..

    anyways, to your question

    everyone knows that detonation kills motors .. so at what power level you can expect to see it with a good tune - well with your B18 build block I think you can go as far as 400 to 450 WHP max at whatever PSI that happens with pump gas. As far as the sleeves are concerned - those can get busted at 6psi, and they can work fine at 26psi .. So as long as you keep the good tune they should be fine. IMO, you are looking at about 22psi for those power goals above.

    As I remember you said that you're not tuning your motor by yourself, but make sure your tuner go no more than 11:1 A/F, and go conservative with the timing - that's the most important in the tune
