Turbocharge it. Building it n/a will be a waste of time and money.

no it's not the si engine, the si engine is a D16A6. Best mod for the D15's are to convert it from DPFI to MPFI, overall best mod for any 4th gen is a swap IMO

Or that. Turbocharging/Swapping a 1900lb CRX is a great combo for speed.

This site has a few people who have turbocharged that engine or similar engines.

that engine (if in good condition) has potential..
I've seen NA crx's blow supras out of the track.
It's gonna be mad expensive though
Needs a lot of time in the garage and lottts of money.
And if you want it to run that fast, you probably wouldnt want it as a daily driven car.

I myself have a 91 civic with the same motor and I can tell you DPFI sucks!!! Do a swap you can do a LS swap cheap in a 4th gen and it will be really quick.
Also the D15B2's that people boosted on homemadeturbo.com all blew up, if I am not mistaken, so don't go that route unless you convert it to MPFI.
