12's and 11's in the 1/4 are impossible in a crx.

Well first off int he 1/4 you need to get traction so power is really useless if you cant put it down. If i were you i would get as much track time as possible after you get your setup so you can get used to it. Try to get that 60' as low as possible. also if you were tuning using UD or crome (dont know if crome has it) you can use FTL and FTS that will help you be consistant with your launches and fts well thats just self explanitory. What trim rex? SI, Dx? do you care about interior? if it is going to be strictly a track car or street? tub it out and try to save as much weight as possible. my 90 dx i had came in at what 2300lbs roughly? that is alot of room to improve. weight reduction is free until you start you buy lighter material parts i.e. fiberglass instead of metal. you can also lose the fuel tank and go with a smaller capacity fuel cell. as far as engine. well thats all up to you there is so much ---- you can swap in there it is insane. you need to decide what kind of budget you have and what your HP goals are until then you cant even start to build a motor. B series is the most common swap into a rex aside from the low budget d-series build. if you go b, again it all depends on your budget. you can go to a junkyard and get a b18 from a junked LS or go online and order that new mad tyte jdm typer motor. sure liek 65 hp difference but is it worth the money if you can jsut turn up the boost on a built ls? be specific let us know what your goals are beside times and let us know how much money you got to spend. ive seen plenty of d series beat out a higher hp b series because of traction problems and track expierence.Also its FWD as for me i would go with a solid rear mount, l-con traction bar, and fine tune the suspension which i would use koni sports and ground control OR you can opt for an LSD and then if traction is still a prob which you will need to be making alot of hp then go with the others and just learn to drive the beast.

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... i thinking of only one turbo on a non-VTAK engine w/ NAWS. You are right my friend, 8 turbos are better than one and will definitely make 9's in the 1/4
