here a lil better pic
no, not sleeved, no need as only pushing 160kW
yours looks fine, if it was bored by a proper machinist, it should be fine...
what is the P2W clearance? bearings clearance?
FWIW - i started mine, got it up to temp, checked for leaks and shut it down, then i drove it 50m up the driveway to a tow truck and had it run in on the dyno... seating the rings under load is crucial to longevity...
as long as you don't beat on it with unknown fueling, it is OK, but you don't want to risk it IMO... run it in on a dyno and she'll be apples :)
ive called a couple of place some places from 1100 dats just the first tune breake in extra 300 and some places 500 lol
dyno break in is 400ish plus full tune around 750 (plus 40l of petrol), so 1.2k minimum is a good ball park (i am a regular customer of his...)
takes a whole day (at least) of effort by the tuner... anything less and you know it is not going to be done right...
Toda Racing Australia did mine, very very happy...
but when fully building an engine, you have to realise you have to pay for a tune to match your ECU to the engine combination that you have "created"
people who think they can run a 'base-map' and pray for the best are way behind the eight ball...
