Default UK 91 CRX 1.6iVT

Greetings from the UK

I've just bought a late 91 UK CRX 1.6i VT. It has the B16A1 engine I'm told. Not sure about the BHP figure for this engine. I've read that the B16A1 has 150BHP not 158BHP as I thought it had. I' m having a power run soon so I'll see what it's putting out then.

I'd been looking for a mint example for 18 mths when I found this amazing car!
It's been stored for 10 years and is like new. It's only covered 12,730 miles! It doesn't feel run in yet

I'll add some pics at the end of the post. I'm new to this forum and would like some help and advice from you all will choosing a supercharger. I've been looking at Jackson Racing and Pro charger up to now. I want to buy from the US and ship it over to me in the UK. A Pro charger in the UK will cost me about £3300 + £450 to fit.
Thats about $5700 for the kit!! I've been told if I buy a kit fro mthe US for a CRX it wont fit my Euro (UK) spec car. Is that correct? Was the B16A1 ever fitted into the US spec CRX? I can get a kit fitted (or possibly fit it my self) but I need to know what to order for my car so it will fit correctly. Which it the best SC to fit & what power gain will I get. I'm going to fit a 4-2-1 header and De cat with full system back. This should give me 10 - 12 BHP I'm told. I also want a new throttle body. I can get the one fitted on the car machined in the UK for £176 all in (about $305) and also fit a induction kit. The other thing was a Hondata S200. I'm told this is a good system thats not too expensive. Any help would be much apprecited!

Regards,

Dino UK.
