I hooked up a turbo with a fuel computer in my car not knowing that they were NOT compatable and I ran way to rich and put a hole in two pistons and ****ed up four valves.

You guys are right,I just bought a long block from a totaled es from a guy in CA for $800.00 shipped with 1500 miles on it. Should be here in 3-5days.
(Back to the drawing board) Round Two

Your car would be damn hot with (functioning) boost. 
You could still try to overbore (with sleeves) your current engine and build it out of car while riding the stock ES engine too. I dunno what your plans are, but it seems like a good one to me.
Also, if you sleeve the motor, it's not going to be a daily driver motor. I don't know how long the cyl walls will last. Pro drag drivers like Lisa Kubo bore and stroked the 2.2 to a massive 2.6L and has virtually no cyl walls.
Maybe find some way to drop the CR to 8.8:1 and boost away. CR 8.5:1 is mire conservative.
Well, can you take pics on the cyl head and measure its height?
