Sounds like a fun combination... from what i recall the XR3's weren't too hot on handling a Turbo engine so they had to increase stiffness in the chassis. Just a thought...

The B16A engine doesn't have much more torque than an XR3i (102 lbft for XR3i vs 100-116 depending on particular model for the Honda)
