any engine is "possible" to turbo, but would you want to bother is sometimes the real question.
hasport used to make mounts for b-series into the 3rd generation civics/1st-gen CRX's but have discontinued them. but you could possibly find some still around, maybe used but they have a lifetime guarantee.

Dont bother putting a motor into it untill you blow up your si. Thats why you need a turbo. I built my turbo kit for my 88 si for about a grand. You can get shity parts and get it boosting for like $300-$400ish. Search around for "HMT" "Home Made Turbo" you'll like what you see.

if i were to use the integra motor, do i use the crx tranny or the integra tranny??does the teg tranny bolt in?
does the intake mani. off the crx bolt to the teg engine?
will the teg engine just plug in or will i have to cut-n-paste the harness?
how is the suspension for this year and is there an aftermarket?

THANX TO EVERYONE WHO TOOK A MINUTE TO HELP.

use the 86-87 Integra engine which is more compatible with your car - use engine, transmission, ECU, axles, knuckles/hubs and shift linkage from the Integra - all bolts right in - wiring harness plugs right in to all connectors, except at the distributor due to Cylinder Position Sensor on exhaust camshaft - 88-89 Integra will work, just more wiring issues - CRX intake manifold will not fit D16A1
