umm, well I have a 1st gen b16a engine... I had to use an OBD 1 distributer, and a P28 ecu chipped for a DOHC engine.

If the B16 is a first gen it is OBD0. If you are putting it in a 97, the 97 is OBD2. I would suggest buying an OBD2 to OBD1 jumper harness and then buying a P30 or P28 ecu as mentioned above. You will have to switch the distributer and probably a few other things, but it will be worth it for tuning down the road. What tranny are you using? 88-91 is cable tranny and 92+ is hydraulic.
