I think I already said nice, but nice!
Damn man, that's bad as hell. I never thought I would ever see a turbo'd stock CRX motor! Way to go!
Nice prices and good idea to run the low psi until the fuel system is upgraded.

The Extreme right angle in the pipe is a bit restrictive though. You may want to look into smoothing that out

if you look close at the engine bay closup on the turbo and lighten up the pic a bit you'll see that right angle was cut out and its now mandrel. :p

hks racing, its the older generation hks, and came with a rev hard kit in the past i believe
I like the pic of the intercooler on the DEEP FREEZER. :D
Very NICE.....I like it...I like it a lot
Damn, that makes me want boost even more.
That's a sweet setup you got there. I especially like that you're running that on the dx motor. :D

where did you get that exhaust manifold? Or did you have it made? Also, what kind of turbo is that? I've been thinking about doing a junkyard turbo on my car for a while now since i have a mitsubishi and a couple dodge daytona turbo's laying around.
that exhaust manifold is from a crx hf, and fits all d series engines.

the turbo code is TEO4H and its off a mitsu, not sure which one tho, maybe an older eclipse?
nice turbo crx.
The engine bay needs to be cleaned though.
That intercooler looks good
