Default build up the crx si motor or do a swap?

im buying a stripped 88 crx si from my friend. the suspension brakes tires and all that good stuff but the motor is 90% stock and its already a bit fast. i want yalls opinions on to build up the si motor or use the money that i would build it up with and buy a b16 to put in it. 1 way ill have a built up si and the other ill have a stock b16. all you american muscle head freaks that hate on hondas soo much can keep yalls opinions to yourself cause i alsu drive a 04 40th mustang. i just choose to race the honda instead of my daily driver. i know the best and worse of both worlds. i just want someone elses opinion on this one.

A CRX with a built B series motor would beat the hell out of a mustang any day of the week. However, I would consider a B18. It has a larger displacement, more stock power and makes for a very nice turbo set up.

If your going for racing then do the swap if you want a daily driver and race at the same time but be a little slower stick with the same motor.
