Re:CRX vs. Z28

for the money i might be better off w/ the b16a1, using bolt ons, w/ racing clutch, and a better suspension setup. Turbo setups are just alot of money for the abuse on the d-series..

a stock b16a with bolt ons will give you about 145-150whp.

Good luck buddy...

Re:CRX vs. Z28

i dont think you could drop any *stock* honda motor (i4) + i/h/e into that car and beat him.

i bet you could boost the 1.5l MPFI hard for one race and be close or maybe beat him?

my friends *moms* 95 camaro with LT1 + intake + perf chip auto pulled on my integra from a roll (225hp/240ft-lbs)

So, a sohc head on my d15 block boosted would do the trick? you guys talk alot about tuning, and how that helps prolong engine life on turbocharged engines.. being a noob n' all i dont really understand what u mean by tuning.. i know people dyno tune but I dont guess I understand the process of dyno tuning. Can someone explain this for me?

dude, it's obvious though.. you turbo charge an engine that wasn't made for boost.. it cant be a good thing.. would u put money on a d-series boosted 140,000 mile engine to last 250,000 miles being well maintained and tuned??

Re:CRX vs. Z28

at night when he least suspects it:

1. Break his legs (he'll have to find another way to press the gas pedals) then..
2. Steal his money (that should help cover the cost for a turbo kit)
3. Post pics

You should definitely win that 300 bucks.

Or take the ----- way out, just hand him the 300 bucks.
