What do you think? My CRX Turbo SI
SO let me know what you think of my 90 CRX SI. Totally custom. Front bumper wont fit over the pipes so I will get a new bumper cover, dont really know which kind yet.

That steering wheel and tach are awful
What do you have for fuel management?
Why both boosting that shitty A6?
I'd have at the very least thrown an SOHC VTEC in there, or better yet just swapped a B16a. Maybe same power but delivers it far better.

Another reason is because the car is a d-series motor. There is nothing like telling someone you have a d-series and then smokin there ass. Even if it is boosted. Like I said, I bought, tore down, rebuilt, and ran this D16 in like a week and a half. Its not pretty, it is a toy, But it is REAL FAST! At 8-10 psi on a 95 degree day I ran low 9's consistantly in the 1/8. The day I was testing, a guy w/a civic hatch ran 8.5's on slicks w a ls motor and a 50 shot. I would say on slicks this crx could be in that range. This crx has stock suspension and stock wheels and tires for now. I am not trying to dump a bunch of cash. I just has a set of coilovers returned so I will probably put those on there. Plus, The night before the track I got it on the interstate boosted up to 15-17 psi and backed off, wastegate wasnt opening, but I know this car can handle some boost, and if I blow it up-so what- I had a few people around here say- how come you didnt put a b series in it? or why did you do this- or why didnt you do that? I didnt do it cause I didnt have it in the garage at the time. There are a few things I am planning to do like I paln on putting in a little bit bigger injectors, fuel rail, - I am leaning out a little above 13 psi, I just want to push this motor as much as I can, Then when I blow it up I will track down a b18 and try that. I am addicted to working on cars, I spend most of time at my garage, I had originally built this for the 4cyl shoot out here in Knoxville, but didnt finish in time. I cant believe you dont like the sterring wheel. Hell I like it, even if it is APC-lol the tack was required because the factory tack sucked and was off real bad, and trying to look at the s-afc is just stupid. When I asked what you thought I wasnt referring to it as look at the crx in general I was just want to know what people thought of the turbo kit? Anyway here are some pics of my daily driver
those are some hella carbon burns on that rear bumper man.. I suggest you getting that tip extended by your local muffler shop.
