Default CRX Turbo Install Questions

I'm just getting started on the whole import/automotive scene and I needed a litlle help. I'm looking to take the turbo and intercooler out of my '96 Talon TSi and buy a 88-89 CRX to put them in. Every thing I'm reading about putting a DSM turbo into a CRX is talking about using an HF manifold, but they don't say which model to perform the install on (HF, DX, Si). Can anyone out there help me out on which model to purchase: HF, Dx, or Si?

trying inserting a b series motor in your crx.
Then a RPS turbo manifold
with a big t4 turbo
and a liquid to air intercooler into your crx

Oh yeah and my car's a street car and it will be done once the standalone and clutch are in.

my setup is just like the Honda builders book crx with same stuff de javu

B16A just went in Thursday

450cc Injectors, Blow Off Valve, and Apexi VAFC in hand
Waiting on manifold, downpipe, T3, and FMIC

Looks like I'll be having the same fun, those T4's are fricking huge, it looks like you could lose a hand through the inlet.

true !!! Rob a bank then spend $5K on a motor swap and a custom turbo AFTER you just bought a car.

Or spend $800-$900 on a HMT for your current motor and run 14s easy. Not everyone is looking for a 11sec honda ( 11 sec Mistus are much cheaper ).
