I paid the local Honda dealer to do mine.
500.00 $
But it'll last 20years, Walbros only last about 2 -3years
But you need it for turbos,
have to pay to play =]

Like others have said yes, you will need to drop the fuel tank to replace your fuel pump. You don't have to drop it all the way down though.
What motor so you have in your CRX? My CRX is supercharged as well.
