If cost is an issue, get a SOHC VTEC swap with a custom turbo. IMO, a swap is better that the mini-me, b/c you'll want the shorter gearing of those transmissions anyway.

it's a bit too long and you'll drop out of vtec when you shift if you do motor swap. But, then again if your going to turbo, the longer gears like the dx tranny might be better because you'll have longer time for the turbo to spool and do its thing.

B18B+Turbo (rev hard, Drag, homemade) plus bolt ons and tuning=12's possibly. SHould kick some Ace! But are you looking to drag? Auto-X? Show even? Hints are helpful. There is also MUCH to learn on HT.com......I myself am just starting to learn the mystical powers of IMPORTS ( :crowd: ooooooh.......ahhhhh :crowd so read read read!

Turbo d15b vtec! That is where I'm headed. I got my engine and tranny for $550.00 combined. If I spend another $1000 on the turbo I'm only at $1500.00 for a very fast car.

yea a turbo itr would be fast and **** but im not looking to spend 5 grand on this car either im not looking for a show car i just want it to be as fast as my b16 crx i had, but i want this one to handle good i kinda wanted to go with a d since the car is allready preety heavy and i dont need any more lbs over the front wheels thanks for all the input so far. about the trans i was thinkin that the cx would be better if going turbo...
