I ordered a set of the L.A. Iron Sleeves for the B21 today. 140 bucks shipped.
My local shop is gonna put 'em in for $200.

Boosting a B21....PRICELESS!!!!!!:thefinger:

Im waiting to see how the sleeve job goes and then Ill make a final decision. I can't wait to see how things turn out but im still aiming for a number that can be driven close to daily. The sleeves are kind-of a universal deal I still have to have them bore and hone the new sleeves. It gives me a few more things to think about when it comes to the comp. ratio and boost. Don't worry I'll keep ya posted!!

Im getting really tired of screwing around with unknown companies. During the confirmation of my order they informed me that the person who took my order screwed up and put in the wrong part number. MY sleeves cost around $400 NOT shipped. The sleeves they were going to send me would have been for a honda CR-250 dirt bike!

Why not just get a B20A5 and use the block? Cheaper and the B20A's block is very strong. 250whp all day long is very possible on a stock B20A block.

Is there a lot of work invovled in that kind of swap or is it pretty much a bolt together deal? Also what is that gonna do to my comp. ratio?

OKAY.......no crap this time. The sleeves are $30 a piece. grand total of $120 and that does not include shipping. Ended up having to talk to the v.p. of the plant before I got a straight deal. They are also a couple months behind on these peticular sleeves because of insane high demand. SO.....When i do get the sleeves I'll proly post for another b21 block to do this project with due to my being at 144,000 miles and still hasn't sipped the oil! Just answer a few questions I'm proly gonna go with the LSD manifold and a T3/T04E. Will keep ya'll informed from here.:biggrin:
