cylinder pressure cannot be measured by boost pressure. there is not number u can put on the threshold of stock sleeves.
detonation will kill stock sleeves, not power(within reason)

Like I said, I would push no more than 15 PSI on it. I know what's done to the car so I'd say 15 PSI would be fine.

I figured 15-16.. I know i can do more then 12-13 I see stock doing 15.. so i am not worried about that. I planned to take your advice kris, just wanted to see what other people thought about it.
