Darton flanged vs. mid sleeves... opinions?
Going to sleeve my h22 block soon and just wanted to get some opinions on this. Im going to be running maybe in the far future 15 lbs of boost at the most. but for now probably 8 or 9 low and 11 or 12 high. The mids are a few hundred more but seem to be well worth it. Just wondering if i would be safe just putting the flanged sleeves on. Thanks to everyone in advance!

you should be fine on stock sleeves as long as you dont plan on revving the motor really high and a good tune is a must. you dont want detonation

well boosting a h22 requires sleeving unless you go with mahle gold pistons. just wanted to see if anyone out there had used the flanged sleeves and how that experience went.

you can rund the stock bottom end to about 350whp and it will hold up with a good tune.you do not need sleeves to boost a h22

im guessing hes going to run forged pistons, then he needs to sleeve the block.
im well aware you can run boost on a stock block, but maybe op is thinking ahead.
honestly i cant really help much, if your getting forged pistons then yeah sleeve it, if not you dont need to sleeve.

Get it sleeved. Ramey has been getting alot of blocks sleeved and his prices are very fair.
I have AEBS sleeves and no complaints here.
