P28 would be the best choice...unless you can get your hands on a P30!

if you wanna make your ECU life easier...stick with an OBD1 ECU....
they're more reprogrammble friendly than OBD2 ECU's.

some other tasty knowledge:
whether you get a P28, P30 (JDM or US), P72, or P61 and decide to go with a mugen program on it, it does NOT MATTER which of those ECU's you get...the program will run same on any of these ECU's. So..I suggest you get a P28, since they're cheaper than a real DOHC Vtec ECU. You can get the P28 converted to DOHC VTEC mugen spec....if you didn't know already.
Also..I provide that service

How much do you advance the timing on the mugen program. I am getting one from a freind that you did and he does not know.
