i was reading another board about a crx H22 swap, and they said its not that expensive of hard if you have a 5th gen crx, i dunno what gen mine is, but it isnt much more then a b16 but a lot better result i am assuming. and upgrading the front suspension and all that.... any info plz tell me, i am interested...

that is the one thing i absolutely love about hondas. All their motors are basically compatiable with everyone of their cars, including acura motors. I love it!
Always wanted a hatch with a type-r.

I wouldn't do a h22 in that CRX of yours. I would simply just get a turbo kit for it.

I think u will get more power from a turbo then u will get from that b16SIR and if u go with a custom turbo it should run you less than 2grand

so turboing my HF with i think 62 hp will give me a gain of 100hp? isnt that kinda of a lot... when iget my b16 i am def going to change the rods, cams, valves, valve springs, and some other stuff cuz i heard they have horrible rods....

HF?
Isn't that the one, where you can swap to a b16 head and a few other componts, and that will jack the comprasion up and take you too mid 13s.
You really don't need much power to be fast. You car weighs next to nothing.
