New project.....
Very close to getting a 90 CRX Shell. My plans are to drop an LS motor in it and turbo the beast. I'm looking for around 230whp. I don't want to be like every other CRX with a B16 dropped in it. suggestions?

Suggestion? Go do it. Ls swap is cheap and great to boost. It'll make 250 whp easily with stock internals. Fuel management is a must. At the very least, do a VAFC hack with dsm 450cc injectors. Precision turbos are very well built.

Set a goal and start building. If it's your first setup stick with a stock bottom end, larger injectors and Hondata. VaporTrail will be able to help you with the Hondata and some good part recommendations. I would recommend a Precision SC50 or Garrett T3/T04E 50 trim.

if you can only race me in a straight line then whats the point

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
