put a b18c1 in there and do an all motor setup. all motor is sexy
 CAI header exhaust lightweight pulleys 8lb flywheel stage 3 clutch 11.5:1 pistons 440cc injectors forged rods fuel pressure regulator LSD msd ignition plugs plug wires cam gears intake manifold stage 3 full race camshafts titanium valve springs and retainers port and polished head ECU hardened valve spring cups knife edged crankshaft high flow cat larger fuel pump stroke and bore resleeved might not have enough money for alllll that after the b18c1, so if not you might want a b16 (GREAT for CRX swaps)

id go with a b18a and turbo that, the ls is better for turbo than the b16.

GSR swap or turbo LS is my vote. and youll have enough money to swap in the B18B 2200 and then turbo kit about 3k then 800 for shipping

well, you can get the complete B16 swap for 1500 from hmotorsonline.com and then you can get the mounts for 450 from hasport, and I dont know if the b series linkage will work but hasport has the lnkage for the swap for 150, then spend some on a new timing belt, new filters/fluids.
so you spent like 2200 or so plus shipping and you are paying yourself about 1k to do it your self, but if youve never done much to cars it would probably be worth the 1k extra to have a shop do it since just in case something goes wrong they gave you a quote and hopefully would stick to it.

me and a friend of mine, has put in (i guess) about 6 ZC swaps. but never even thought of doing a b16. i think ill leave that to the shop. if i wanted to turbo later down the line, would a ls or b16 be better? i heard that the ls is better, but b16 in a crx just sounds so nice lol.
