which motor to turbo

which one would be the best for a crx, I mean best for power and price and ease and reliablity

A ZC motor

a JDM B16
or just a b16 vtec

list any others that might be a worth wild engine to turbocharge and the types of power to expect from each

Mabey a big block 454 Hemi :D

may be but 454 arent hemi, 440 are

lol a 454 HEMI! haha learn your 60-s and 70-s cars before talking about engines that don't exist. I'd reccomend that you turbo a USDM b16 because its cheaper, and if you plan to run any heavy boost, you can get better internals, which is really the only difference between a USDM and JDM b16 motor i believe...the compression. i MAY be wrong on this, but i would still reccomend a USDM b16 for turbo.

har har har... the 60's and 70's hemis weren't the only ones.

Some old Chrysler hemis:

1951 331 in3 Chrysler Fire Power V8
1952 276 in3 DeSoto Fire Dome V8
1953 241 in3 Dodge Red Ram V8
1966 426 in3 Dodge / Plymouth V8

Keep your eyes open for a 5.7L (345ci) hemi in the very near future (like next year).

Yea, first off the hemi never came in a 454, nor did it come in any GM products. Anyway, i think you missed a motor to list, the gsr or ls w/out vtec are the two best motors to turbo in my eyes. Hell i should put down close to 450 @ 18psi with my gsr block and only using a fmu fuel setup.

so you think non vtec are the way to go, I am new to the honda area, gsr's come with out vtecs
