Default CRX B16 Turbo or Supercharger?

Well, i have a crx with b16 rite now...

Anywayz, i'm running mid 14's rite now but i want faster.. . So i was wondering can the vortech supercharger fit in a crx, and if not what kind of turbo kit can fit in there... If all else fail, i'm considering having to build my own turbo kit, but would rather have the vortech..

"i say, spend that money u gonna spend on the turbo and jus build an all out n/a motor... u knoe, pistons, cams, manifolds... ect ect... i dunno but i like all motor better... turbo and nos is for people who cant keep up..." <SoLoMaNdEr>

I believe that was your quote and looks to me to be very........... hipocritical!

oh well, I think you should Turbocharge it. Superchargers, sure they can be fast, but expensiveand not as cool.

If you don't mind a little under 200hp, then you'll be happy with a supercharger. They just aren't as efficient as turbochargers, and are ultimately limited in power on a B16. If superchargers were the best way of making power on a B-motor, Jojo, Lisa, and Kenny wouldn't use turbos.
