You say it already has a turbo, then what are you going to do with a cold air intake? As for the exhuast, if widen the pipe, get rid of the cat, and get a free flowing muffler, it will make a big difference on a turbo charged car.

I am running 10psi on stock internals on a b18c without a problem for quite awhile. If you are planning on swapping out the motor then dont waste your money building that one up. You should be safe at 5 for now, just watch you fuel mix and keep the motor tuned up. You can never change your oil too often for a turbocharged car. I change mine every two thousand latest.

And post some pics of that crx when you are finsihed. I have never heard of anyone getting an h22a to fit in a crx.
