ok fair enough obviously arguing is getting us nowhere i just think for someone who obviously wants more power that he really doesn't have any problems with ( bugs and shit like that) a boneyard turbo setup is not the way to go. And yeah i guess you could put around 6 psi to a stock bottom end ( I wouldn't do it ) without a lot of problems. I personally think that there are a lot better ways to make power on stock bottom end than boost. Building up a zc n/a would be much more rewarding ( could easily smoke a stock or modded b16a depending on how modded it is ) I personally am going to start by doing head work boring the throttle body ( do not buy a larger one it costs like 50 bucks to get the original bored ) obviously i/h/e comes before that then add cams add all of the bolt ons then build it into a stroker. like 225 all motor hp is very possible from a zc then if you are not happy put some juice to it you could be pushing up to 300 hp and in any street driven crx that is insane hp thats how I would do it sorry for getten on ya for how you would do it
im just saying that for the price of building your engine n/a you could have the same hp with turbo, but for way less money.
and im not sure what you mean by bugs.
im not too sure how much you know about building a motor, but i think getting 225hp outta a zc would cost an arm and a leg.
it goes from cheapest to more expensive, and in my eyes its all just hp, it doesn't matter if its boost or all motor your gonna have the same hp.
cheapest route would be turbo, then all motor, and after that it would be more worth it to just swap a more powerful engine in.
