SOHC ZC or D15B? for CRX going turbo!!!
I was just curious what everyone thought. I know the sohc zc is obd0, so that saves me some headaches but, the d15b does come with an lsd transmission and v-tec. So, I am going to be going turbo and was just curious which would be the easier, and cheaper, to maintain and work with. Also, if you guys have other ideas for good d-series turbo set ups, let me know, thanks.
For starters, the correct spelling is "VTEC". You'll get flamed bad for v-tec, vtech, vtak, etc.

The JDM D15B VTEC is a great motor. Of course, I'm partial to it
One plus about the D15B is its Rod/Stroke Ratio. The transmission that would come with the motor uses a hydraulic clutch whereas your car has a cable clutch. You can buy a kit to be able to use the hydraulic tranny if it were a B-Series motor/transmission... I've never seen a D-Series Mounting Kit. You'll have to weld in a mounting solution for the transmission plus get an actuator convertor. Even so, I think that the LSD equipped tranmissions are getting harder to come by, although I could be wrong.
Sorry, don't know much of anything about any of the standard ZC's.
