Default Turbo on a D16A1???

I am in the process of swapping a D16A1 (88-89 teg engine) into a 1st gen CRX. Seeing that there isnt many options for this model without going overboard I am looking into possibly boosting this engine. Any help on this would be appreciated.

on that motor you should be able to use the sohc greddy kit becaue the ports are so similar on the exhaust manifold...really any single cam kit will work, but greddy is a pretty inexpensive and very complete kit

sawz-alls are awesome..... And I say on a project like that, fuck an intercooler, just run a 2.5" pipe with a bov straight from the compressor outlet to the throttle body, and use an alcohol injection system that engages off of a throttle position switch....
