I wanted to know do you need to sleeve the ecotec block when installing new pistons cause i want to get a port and polished head and i wanted to do rods and pistons but wiseco recommends sleeving the block. Can someone give me some info. Thanks.

Darton makes a sleeve kit for the 2.2L We actually carry it. Email us with any questions. I think they are about $600 for the set.

Ok what compression ratio you recommend im going to go turbo the car out in the summer. Should i go lower or retain the stock ratio.
lower would be better, how much boost are you planning for?
If all goes well boost 22 pounds occasionally not daily of course.
The Sleeves are not required, I'm also doing an Ecotec build up. I have wisco 8.9:1 compression pistons with a .20 overbore, and eagle rods, I looked into it and you DO NOT have to sleeve your engine, the stock sleeves are capable of handling your application. if you have more questions you can e-mail me at bishop_38@hotmail.com good luck with your build man.

No the sleeves are not needed for any application less than about 400HP, anything over that and I would consider getting a set.
Email us on Wiseco pistons... new lower prices
