13 more questions for you all:

1.  What does a turbo blowoff valve do and when is it needed?

2.  What is a wastegate?

3.  Do most/all D engine series parts fit ZC engines?

4.  How much are most engine mounts for a b16 swap (i've heard 躔, but I know JDMhondaparts has them for 蹉)?

5.  Other than ecu, tranny, and mounts, what else is needed to swap in a b16?

6.  What is a good price for a swap on both a b16 and on a ZC?

7.  What does purging [NOS] mean?

8.  What does something like a Venom 400 control modular do that says it'll increase HP 25%?

9.  Does anyone here autocross?

10.  Removing cat, good or bad?

11.  I've seen many crxs with frames around the taillights, where are they from?  Were they a stock feature for some crxs?

12.  Is installing springs easy enough to do it yourself, or does it need to be done at a shop?

13.  How can I find the right bulbs that will work in my headlights?  Does basically anything work?

Any/All of your answers will be greatly appriciated.
Thanks in advance

1. it releases the pressure in the intake charge pipe from being forced back toward the turbo (which could cause damage to the turbo)

2. a wastegate is an alternative route for the exhaust gasses to exit the car withought going through the turbo and creating hp. which controlles overboost and boost spike.

3. i think all the parts of a d series fit a sohc zc, not sure about the dohc though

4. 300$ or so

5. dunno

6. free

7. i think it gets rid of air bubbles and pressure from running the nitrous and helps to prevent detonation.

8. dunno

9. i don't

10. good and bad, more hp but louder and less legal

11. i think thoes are stock on the 90 and 91 rexes

12. easy to do yourself, the hardest part is compressing the spring.

13. i wish i knew

hope this helps, and as always i could be slightly off in some areas.

1. Releases pressure on the copressor inside the turbo, allowing free-flowing air and continued boost. Without it, the pressure would actually spin itself backwards under high boost.

2. Read Phiber's

3. When it comes to like bolt-ons and shit, yeah. I Think it is, but not like cams and shit, I think they are different.

4. 蹢 for the HASports

5. Enigine,tranny,ecu, shift linkage, mounts, axles, wiring harness. YOu should also change the clutch, water pump, timing belt, alternator belt, spark plugs, header.

6. free, or 躔-񘈨

7. Purges any air out of the lines, so it is straight NO2 running the line into the motor.

8. Increase ful flow, ALOT. If you have a heavily modified car, more fuel to burn = more power. But unless you are REALLY heavily modded, it aint worth the $$$

9. No

10. Good, if ya don't get caught or fail smog........

11. 90-91 CRX had them

12. Depends how mechanically inclined you are, have a spring compressor?

13. High- 9005
Low- 9006

Can a turbo have both a wastegate and blowoff valve?
