Piggyback systems that come with turbo kits (Greddy, Edelbrock, etc..) won't allow you to reach your hp goal. They still won't offer you the same type of control as a standalone. Example, Apexi AFC. On MAF based cars, an AFC scales down the voltage signal to the ECU, so you can run larger than stock injectors. Let's say your telling the ECU that there is 10psi worth of air entering the engine, so you can control the larger injectors, when in reality there is 20 psi. Problem is, the computer still uses the same timing values that it would normally run for 10 psi. Why? Because the AFC is feeding false readings to the stock computer. Obviously running the same ignition advance for 10psi and 20 psi is not a good thing. If you want to do it right, you either need to convert to OBD1, and run a decent standalone such as Hondata or Neptune, or shell out the money for an AEM EMS which they make for OBD2 Integras, and even then I'm not sure if it would pass inspection. So, unless you have a way of getting around inspection, or you want to remove the entire turbo kit every year to pass, your stuck. If none of this matters to you, then I will let you know the pricing on certain kits. But keep in mind you won't reach your hp goals without a standalone controlling everything.

Could you acquire and install a DOHC ZC engine with tranny, and a new clutch, flywheel, and header into my CRX Si? Price?

I have a 1994 Delsol S. D16 swap. In your opinion is it worth it to boost the d16 engine or should I save up the extra money and just throw the b16 in it?

It sounds like it should be the other way around. A properly setup turbo kit will cost more than a B16A swap. That's assuming you use quality parts. An OBD-1 B16a into your 1994 Del Sol will cost the same as a swap into a 92-95 Civic, so $3300.00 out the door. Is your D series a Z6? If so, I'd boost that. You'll spend $3500-$4000 on on a good turbo setup, and can make 250-300 whp reliably. If your not opposed to used parts, I can source you a complete kit that way as well.

I would budget roughly $4000. That would cover good parts, although they will most likely be used at this price, fuel system, engine management, installation and tuning.
