1991 Honda CRXOwner: John RoyalLocation: Lincoln, Nebraska

John Says: "It's good for 160 wheel-hp and 160lb-ft from 2200 to 6000rpm at 7.5psi flat across the board. I built the turbo kit for $800, with the help of Homemadeturbo.com. I did everything you see, the engine, paint and body, rebuilt engine and turbo kit, except for the seats and the tint. We tuned with Turboedit by LoDo racing at DynoSport here in Lincoln, Nebraska. Up next is something involving my '89 four-wheel-drive Civic and my CRX. Oh, and it beats those nasty Crustangs."
