Default ECU for daily driver 92 EG with b16A?

Hey I plan on ordering an ECU from phearable but do not know were to start. I currenly have a chipped P28 but I read those suck for a b16a and I don't know what is on the chip (as a different HT member brought up). The car currently has a blox manifold, short ram intake, and no name 4-1 headers, FITV is gone (not sure if it matters). This is how I bought the car.

This is my only car so I use it to commute as well as for pleasure so I'm looking to get an ECU that allows me the power when I need it (merging, catching yellow lights, adrenaline rush) but not looking to do much racing or changes to the motor. It will most likely stay as is for a long time.

First off, B16A, or B16A2? If it's the B16A, which generation is it?

I'd love to know where you read that a chipped P28 "sucks" for a B16A. The only way any chipped ECU can suck for any motor is if it's the wrong chip. Call Phearable, tell them exactly what you have, and they'll cut you the right chip for your setup.

No it wasn't. Tell teh whole story. You were told your basemap was probably bunk. Especially since you didn't even know what parameters were modified on it. Cels being thrown and low idle and you thought you had to replace a half-sized rad with a full to fix those two issues. You were also questioned why you weren't using the ECU for the engine.

Dang grump stop stalking me. I said I "read" you idiot! I didn't say I was "told " obviously I'm talking about a different thread. Since the question I asked on that thread was answered by someone actually trying to help I figuered I start a new one with a different title. I gave you the credit you desire so much and I was already looking to get a new ECU since, like I admited, I don't know whats on it. The only reason I didn't mention that I need an ECU in THAT thread is cause people like you say "fix the code first" and don't even offer advice on where to begin (as anyone can see by the things that *** out your fat mouth). Its people like you that run their mouth and then wonder why they get punched when the distance between my knuckles and their face is closed. Stop commenting on my threads or any for that matter if your gonna be so bitter.
