They cost $200 plus $500 to install if that. The dry sleeves are good for 500hp.I dont think you would be needing wet sleeves unless you are hitting 500+ hp.
Now to the heads... The h22a have some of the best flowing heads. They dont need to be PNP cams, blah blah. If you are going to do anything get a vavle job and maybe upgrade the seats and springs but only if you plan on hitting 300+hp. If you are going to turbo the engine there is no need to shave the heads.
Now lower end... The crank is good for 900+ hp and dosnt need to be replaced. If you have the money you can bring it to the machine shop and have them shave about 5lbs off with out losing any strengh... The rods and pistons are good for about 350hp. Take a peek at ebay and you can find good rod and piston combo deals. Eagle,BC,JE,ETC. If you are going to turbo it go for 8:5:1 or 9:1 comppresion.
As for turbos.. If you are going stock you can boost up to 8psi with a T3 and 5psi with a GT35R.
