Definitely go z6. The head flows substantially better then the a6. Look at the AUTOFAQ on this forum:

http://crx.honda-perf.org/forum/index.shtml

It has alot of good details about the a6, z6 and y6 to compare. "Steve" on the forum knows his D16 series stuff. Just search the autofaq before asking your question.

Well, if you want to start off, I have a set of Crower rods for d-series (used but in excellent condition) for sale.....$400 shipped

Turbo mini-me? A little tricky to tune but I gives good result with the high compression factor. You might want to invest in a Zdyne if you're gonna turbo a CRX. I'm sure a 14B off a 1G DSM would work well on it.
