Default All Opinions Please!!!!

I just lucked out and picked up a clean 89 CRX SI(running!) for only $400. I was wanting to hear some input on good set up/swap ideas-B16,B18 or H22-All motor or turbo?

well man that's a very vague question. You want to hear about set-ups but you dont know what your going to do with the car. Do you want to drag, track, or autocross?

Now that the HASport EF hydro kit is out, I would go with an all motor JDM ITR setup or a mild boosted GSR setup. I wouldn't really consider the H22, not for an EF chassis.

Why not? it's been done, and it's a beast. It's just a pain in the *** to do it in a CRX. I would say if he has experience then go for broke with a boosted h22 for all out drag. LIke the saying goes, "No replacement for...."
