Max Capacity Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Darton is a big name in sleeves. Check out their web site. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

Mike07LGT Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 How much power are you looking to put down? What size turbo are you running? Unless you plan on going over 400 wheel horsepower and are running a rotated setup, these motors dont need to be sleeved. They aren't honda engines...but Darton does do a nice job if your project needs the extra security 03 WRB WRX (RIP) 04 JBP STI (sold) 07 DGM Legacy GT (RIP) 12 OBP STI (DD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gto7419 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 To sleeve depends on how you melted a piston and whether or not having sleeves would have prevented it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rester5350 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Dan Benson is also another very good option. I have one of his sb's. I would be weary of having an indy shop add the sleeves, unless they have a LOT of experience with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
