Default CRX noob

Hello, i have a owned 2 eg civics one with a d16z6 which i know have a lot of potential w/ a turbo and the prices for parts are cheap. Im looking on buying a 89 crx si and i think that is the d16a6. How is the motor compared to the z6 in all demensions, ie parts price, heads, etc. Im looking to upgrade the block and turbo it so the parts should be the same its the head thats different correct?

This crx isnt carbed is it?

Thanks for help.

Oh come on, know your cross referencing It can be summed down into a gross over simplification that the only differences between the two motors are the pistons, heads, and the main caps (D16A6 = Steel, D16Z6 = Aluminum)
