Default Which ECU to buy for b16 ???

Hi, i have a 98 civic with a 00 si b16 swap. Im currently running a p73 ecu which burns crazy gas and seems to be overkill. Which ecu is my best shot at buying. I want something that will feed my b16 properly. I looked around and found that chipped p28 might be my best bet. Ps i currently have intake/headers/exhaust as mods.
thanks,

all i need to have the p28 up and running is the conversion harness from obd2 to obd1 correct? I wont need to change my distributor or any thing right?

just get a juimper. you need a obd2a to obd1 harness, you can also use the stock si ecu, but you will still need a obd2a to 2b harness.

use the p30 ecu. comes from the del sol si with the b16a you will need a jumper harness. im running that ecu with a b16a2 and it runs perfect. no tune.

i have looked into buying the p28 since ill be able to tune it better for my setup, and change the tune later down the road. However i see there are "P06 ECU converted to P28" ecus going for cheaper prices then the p28 ecus. Is there any cons in these ecu's?
