my crx build up

[the driver]

Hey guys I got a CRX and this is what I plan to do to it after some research IMK what you guys think

swap first gen B16a because it is obd0, sleeve it to 84mm bore should i use wet or dry, Block internal up grade for turbo thinking 9:1 CR, 12-15 lbs boost, tranny the LS 5th gear so it won't rev high while driving 70mph down highway, also is the tranny vss cable or electronic b/c i want the 94+ teg cluster in it and maybe itr 5 lug conversion so i can have s2k cr wheels

your building and resleeving the block to run 12-15 psi...? why? you can run that on stock internals....


if your going to build a 2l block why not look into a balanced b20 btec. re sleeve that and then build the bottom end and run 25 psi daily driven..?

well the B16 is smaller and will give me more room to work with plus it came in a crx, i also want it to be relieable thats why the up grade not really worried about turning heads just want to be able to haul ass when needed

the b20 block isnt much larger. and youll still have plenty of room to work. and with a balanced block it would be 100% reliable.



and trust me. a resleved b20 vtec and a t3/to4 on 25 psi would definatly haul ass in a crx.... so much as in fact... i think you would spin in 5 th gear hahaha.

good luck bro let us know what you decide to do. im interested in the progress. and if you have any questions or anything dont be scared to ask. alot of guys here are nice... well.. sorta.
