i would rather convert it to mpfi, stick with obd0, get an pm6 ecu, then convert it to obd1 later on, just get an obd0 to obd1 harness, with obd0 have a vafc to control vtec or a shift light to kicks in the vtec

You had it right the first time.
Convert to MPFI and then to OBD1.

In your second post you seem to have gotten off track.
You don't use the Si harness at all unless you are up for a wiring nightmare.
Stick to using the DPFI harness and converting it.

Here's a related thread that leaves some questions unanswered.

another.

And a pretty good write up here. (if it's accurate)
