How much Boost you going for man? Boost 15 with good tuning, youll be happy trust me. Otherwise sleeves are going to cost you at least 900$

DH-Racing can probably do it for $1k you gotta count shipping your block back and forth though. I had them build me a full engine block and head (minus camshaft and rocker) using an a6 block with a z6 head oh and no oil pan for $4.5k shipped. This is a fully built motor though, and fully race ready for boost.

So I give props to them www.dh-racing.com (they're one of the only people getting decked up on my car!)
