Ok, so back to the original question, what would be better for higher boost (15psi+), a block guard or sleeves or both if possible? The guy who just dyno'd me at NEDYNO has a 92 teg with a b18a (286hp at the wheels) w/ a block guard, JE 8.5:1's and crower rods and he runs 15psi on the street and 17 at the track, he told me that he has tried sleeves twice and both times his oil looked like a milkshake. Also what comp ratio SRP's should I get? Again, I am a N/A guy going turbo'd, so these might seem like newbie questions, sorry?
I would go with sleeves, simply because they're integral and you don't have to worry about pressing a block guard in. The sleeves are taken out, the new ones pressed in and welded down, then the deck welded closed. Darton has been around forever as well as Eagle. Personally, I'd go with Darton simply on name recognition
