Default CRX with turbo B16 Build??

Well im new to this section of the forum and will admit I'm a newb when it comes to this generation. What im looking to do is build a street/strip CRX that can run in the neighborhood of high 12's to low 13's but still be a easily streetable package. I guess my question is that if this would be possible to do with a mildly turboed B16, since I already have a B16 long block and would like to use it for this project. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

That's completely possible. Hell, you could do it with a turbo D no problem if you wanted.

You could mildly boost the D and crush 12's all day, or the B16 on even more of a ghetto build.

Thanks guys, glad to get all the positive responses. BTW I want to do this using OEM parts in the bottom end. Just one more quick question: I have a hydro B16 tranny and want to know if it would be easier to just pick up a cable b16 tranny or go through the hassle to do the hasport hydro to cable conversion. Thanks again

I'd go with the hydraulic tranny. Especially since you already have it. The hasport conversion doesn't look too bad, and actually there was a tech article covering it in the FEB/MAR issue of Honda Tuning if you got stuck. I'd take a look at Innovative's hydraulic actuator too.

I wouldn't exactly consider a 75 or 100 shot "somemods", it's forced induction. I agree that it would be possible with nitrous, but not just a handfull of bolt-ons.
