D16A8 OBD0 Turbocharged with OEM ECU - Not sure what's next
88 crx w/ d16a8, walbro255 f.p., w/t3/4 turbo, stock ecu., stock injectors. what do i need to do to get this hick-up out? i cant floor the car or it just hick-ups bad?
Uhm, you bolted on a turbo with stock ecu and stock injectors. So when you floor the car, and the turbo is putting significantly more air into the engine, but the stock ecu isnt putting any more fuel in, what do you think could be happening?

At the very least you need some sort of engine management (funny cuz you posted in this forum), and some bigger injectors and a tune.

I dont know if I should convert it over to obd1 so the next motor i buy its set up for it?,get a wideband o2?,How do i tune it on an obd0 setup ? Didnt know what size injectors to buy also?
You MUST convert to a chipped OBD1 ECU. You don't need a wideband sensor/gauge as long as you get it dyno-tuned, the tuner will have one. It CAN be helpful and comforting to know your AFRs all the time though.
You'll probably be fine with 340cc or higher injectors, but it really depends on how much power you are reasonably looking to make. DSM 440s are a cheap alternative, although RDX injectors are higher quality with a better spray pattern.
DO NOT try to drive the car in boost without getting it tuned or you'll very quickly be buying another engine. I would disconnect the charge piping from the throttle body to move the car, or have it towed to the tuner.
