I met a guy with a Crx, it was black when I was selling some parts. Had a B20 build in it, with a flowmaster catback. Had a nice looking tip on it, sorta like a S2000 tip. Sounded very good, and was very mean sounding when vtec crossed over. He said it was a premade catback from flowmaster.
I had a flowmaster on my coupey, and it sounded like poopy.., but it was a crush bent and non resonated, baffled flowmaster. Here is me playing with KyleVa on here.. Had 2.5inch piping on a b16a. Sounded like absolute crap untill I got a resonator on it, then it sounded decent, but it got the job done.

I wonder how much less CRX's are from Cx hatches. Cx's weigh 2044lbs, from factory.
HF's are 1819, I ran 13.90 with IHE, gutted with shitty tires. before going turbo.
I then did a full MSD ignition and drag radials but never got any times. I think mid 13's is reasonable to expect with some Mods. you will need $2,000 to 3,000 before even thinking about turboing this set up. Unless you want to hack it all up. trust me its not a matter of buying a turbo and slapping it on. there is extensive modifications (ie: stock radiator gone, stock front cross member gone). if you want to do it right. Just do little things at a time like Headers one month and maybe then Cold Air Intake the next.

Dude, get a job before you even think about modifying your car. You have no source of income. What happens when out of the blue something goes wrong with your car. You would be dumb to put one dime into you car that wasn't necessary if you don't have a job.
