He's in another country he can't just get a 1.6L block if it's not in his market, that's something that needs to be shipped, and if you need to have an engine shipped to get power there's a better option. And gm8 turbos? I doubt there are big diesel pick ups wherever he is.

edit: South Africa, are there 1.6L hondas there?

But 1.6L's may have aftermarket parts available your funky 1.5L may not.

unless you wanna throw 700 for rods and 400 for pistons, d16 is much better. better meaning by having more aftermarket suppor like the rods that you can get for 250 instead of 700 and pistons for 135 instead of 400. you see ?

the gm8 was a joke. note the :P behind it.

Bought the car from a Turbo junky.

Under full boost the car does NOT over heat, and is NOT consuming oil

the compression has already been dropped to 8.5.1 car is making 200bhp on 95Lrp. The Head and Intake Manifold has not Been Flowed yet...My question is where to next?

WTF does that have to do with anything?

We told you, bigger motor/stronger motor, more boost, slicks perhaps? 200 bhp would get you into the mid 12 low 13 sec on a properly setup CRX, some would say 10-11

Stock EK hatch is only 2100lbs

I don't know what you have but the coupe can't be too much different.

Bah, an LSD, slicks and a good driver should get it into the 12's.

D16Y8-Z6 did it with a 1.5 non vtec, non intercooler, and no lsd. If you can drive you might be almost there.
