Dart iron block with forged JE and Eagle internals with a hybrid turbo boosting 2.5bar, open header, drag suspension up front, gutted to hell with drag slicks.

EG + internally stock B16 and a Greddy turbo.... hehe j/k that is one of the stupidest ideas i've ever come up with..... My friend Kenny has a GSR with Golden Eagle sleeves, JE pistons, Crower rods, Portflow B16 head, Rev Hard stage 2C turbo with a straight T04 turbo, a 42.5mm turbo inovation wastegate, JG Edelbrock Victor X intake manifold, 900cc injectors, controlled by a Blitz SBC boost controller and Hondata 4b. It's in his EK boosting 22psi which made 505whp and 350 torque. I would put this setup in an EG and let it go... hehehehe

My b20/vtec long block is for sale. Perfect if you want to go fast in your hatch. 200whp and 130-140wtq on motors with similar mods. Do you plan to go FI or NA? I live 15 minutes away from garden grove also, you can check out my motor anytime.

Yes. What type of racing? that has a HUGE determination on how you build up the car. I cant even begin to describe anything without knowing what the goal was.

However.... In a nutshell. Road Race = high compression NA and head work. Drag Race = turbo and bottom end work.

Suspension setups are obviously completely diferent as well.

1988 CRX HF with B18c1, skunk2 stage 2 cams, eagle rods, jpe 9 to 1 compression pistons, Mugen N1 ECU, STR intake manifold, 70MM throtle body, REVHARD 2c turbo kit, blitz bov, some underdrive pully's and cam gears... relocate the battery to the hatch in order to make enough room for the turbo, upgrade axles with race axles, pop on some nitto's or hoosiers and pump about 15-20 PSI through there and your golden...you should be making in the 400HP range, but with a car that stock weighed 1800 pounds, that will be low 11's or 10's
