best way to find out is to ask the manufacturers...

It mostly has to do with the intake manifold.

The EX/SI manifold faces the passenger side of the bay whereas yours faces up (correct?).

You could always pick up a D16Z6 intake manfiold, get the turbo kit, and then have it tuned.

Nah thats the 96-00 CXs. Pretty sure all 92-95 D-series kits are "interchangable". But a boosted 8-valve CX will still be slow as ***** lol
