Default Rex Died Plus more

1.) My Rex died last night. I have the B16A2 swap, I went cruising last night and the battery light came on. Lights went dim. I think that I blew My altinator. But my other question is,
2.) I have 17" Drag wheels, with kuhmo tire, and a Tein Springs. My suspention is not as tight as I want it to be. I have front uppper, rear uppper and rear lower sturt bars. Anything else that will help tighten it up?
3.) i'm getting horrible gas mileage. Like 181 miles to a full tank of gas? Do you think my O2 sensor is going out? Or that I have a bad injector? Or what

Thanks

1. have your battery check to make sure that it isnt bad also. an alternator can go bad from trying to charge a bad battery.

2. Get some aftermarket struts like the tokico 5 ways for instance

3. check and clean your air filter, replace the o2, clean your injectors and check your spark plugs and wires.

first check ur connections...make sure that corrosion is not the culprit...but like u said it sounds like ur alternator is the problem...
17" drag wheels? ive never heard of em...17s are too big anyway on a crx..17s will actually cause ur handling to be worse than lets say a 14 inch or 15 inch wheel...but if u want to improve handling sum more..invest in sum thicker sway bard as well as a polyurethane suspension bushing kit...most people dont get these bushings cause the cost of labor is way more than the cost of the part...but if u can do it yourself u will see that it will be the best improvement u can make to your suspension...
yes ur gas mileage is horrible...what else do yuo have on ur b16? or is it all stock?

I have it fully built. I have it bored out 30mm over, JE Pistions, GSR clutch, I'm making about 238HP natuarly. But I did get about 250-200 miles to a full tank. Now about 181. There's no crosion on my battery. it won't even charge, I think that it is my alternator.

I blew out my clutch, I bought a New Exedy Stage 2 clutch with a ACT Lightened Flywheel, I bought the car with the Motor already in there. The guy I bought it from was like, It's a B16A with a B18C1 head? Is that possible
