How many miles on the motor? Do a compression test. If the motor is in bad shape, just do mild bolt ons. If its good, u could add some forced induction...............you could jump on the bandwagon and swap a B16 too.

all honda engines are execellant on gas so it does matter what engine you have they run forever on one tank of gas.

mpfi conversion is a must.....you will notice the gains immediatly, power, throttle responce, sound, idle, and long term tuning. next cheap mod is the a6 cam with either a y8 or y7 cam gear. i am completly assuming your crx is a dx model.

There's a DPFI->MPFI conversion write-up in the DIY section. You should be able to find a cam gear on eBay without much trouble.
