Re:I Hate BOOST

sleeve the block and get some forged internals.
You could go cheap with some replacement sleeves from darton...at least you can rung forged alu pistons with. Or if you are a baller go ***** out...Bensons, Darton MID or Golden Eagle...

Re:I Hate BOOST

Do yourself a favor and sell your vafc, get your ecu chipped, and run uberdata or something, you will save yourself the headache of having to tear apart your motor again. And you should end up with extra money.
