Yes I am new. NBD I race mustangs, and I saw an Evo run 10s, and I thought it would be cool to see what I can do with my CR-V. First thing is going to be to put a head on it ,if possible, to toy with it while I'm buiding a strong bottom end. Might try a turbo, or see what I can do NA. My understanding is NA really isn't that feasible and I'm not into nitrous. I pride myself in building NA and beating power adders, however, The more I read the more I'm becoming open to adders. Do you think I'm nuts??? Might it be possible?? Just lookin to be different.

Just remember. N/a= Deep pockets. For the DDs, Mm..not really reliable.
But then again, if you got money you can do anything.

We are talking Honda motors here, It is hard to build a fast and realiable N/A with 97 CID motor, if you want to compare it to something like a 350, lol, though they arent really the same...
So you have many choices to choose from, man. Do what you

We are talking Honda motors here, It is hard to build a fast and realiable N/A with about 119 CID motor, if you want to compare it to something like a 350, lol, though they arent really the same...DISCPLACEMENT MEANS SOMETHING
So, you have many choices to choose from, man. Do whatever
1. Swap a VTEC head on it for some "awesome power gains and even greater reliability" (saracasm)
2 Do a costly N/A build and get the "above results"
3 Boost it, though i have heard bad things about b20s
4 Sell it and buy something worth building.
I would honestly go with 3 and 4. Unless you want a fun DD, then maybe 1. I have not heard great things about the b20 though so...What ever you do, make sure you match it to your driving style

That's what I'm afraid of. I only wanna do a cr-v to be different. I guess if I run the 2.0 I'll have to boost w/ a "little" spray????? I would prolly have to lower the compression a bit. I don't think those trannies were the greatest and don't know what they will handle. What engines and trannies, if any, would swap into a cr-v with minimal hassle and still keep AWD if at all possible. Don't think I'm crazy, I'm new to the imports as far as racing goes, but I can build 10 second mustangs all day long and just want something people can talk about. Thanx for any help you can give me.
