you could drop a D16Z6 head right on there and plug in a P28 ECU. Or, you could swap in a CRX Si Cam shaft, bolt ons, and some tuning and push about 120 whp

Or you could save up and just swap to a bigger motor. The Si motor only goes for 2500 these days. Of course that's usually without shipping or installation.

just build up your sohc. just do a mini me swap and a nice greddy kit and you should net some nice times and with all the money you saved by not getting a b series you can build the motor. just stay with the sohc the dohc cam is for the people that have the money. on a budget or just every day a sohc kicks ***

Re: 1.5 L Engine?
Thank you guys.. What about droping a turbo in it? Because all the money I will be expending buiding it up I problably could get like a T3 or something and push couple of PSI on it. I do not Know you now I am just asking because I heard that the Hondas run better all motor than with a turbo. Like for example I am originally from Puerto Rico and I have seen couple of street Hondas in street tires with what we call over there (The Frankeinstein) GSR Short Block and SI Head doing 13.8 at 200-210HP, But I also saw and CRX with an 1.5 L engine that he brought from Dominican Republic running 13.2 in street tire. What you guys think about that? Please give me some tips and recomendations. Bye
