Default Q about Crx with H23 and turbo

I have a prelude and will be looking for a crx as a daily driver and winter car.
I would be interested to swap my H23 in after I complete my JDM swap,
I just wanted to know if it only takes the Mounts and whats involved wiring wise
and if there is enough room for a turbo after the motors in

....and all I have to say is its very possible and has been done before.

its pretty much just the mounts you'll consider along with little tips and tricks to shoehorn that baby in there. basically you'll need to consider everything a b series swapper does, down to the axles and shift linkage etc. Just transfer your wiring harness off the prelude with the ecu and you'll be saving your self a lot of work.


yes the motor is heavier and yes it creates a little more understeer, but its not a lot, nothing to worry about for the everyday driver and weekend racer, and this setup is/can be very fun.

like what was said before, traction will be hard to maintain. but it would be nice, i just don't know about for a daily driver.
