Which dist. to use on a b16a

I have a b16a in my 91 Si, I am getting code 9 on 2 different PR3 ecu's. The helms manual says replace dist., so which dist do I get, I think it should be one off the 91 usdm si seeing as all the plugs are the same. Is this right?

Here's what the B16A resource on Hybrid has to say about it:

Quote:

The distributor is a harder find as only the JDM one is truly a bolt-on fix. You can use the '90-1 Integra distributors provided you knock off
one of the mounting legs - otherwise it will not bolt on. In the case of EFs the '92-3 GS-R ones will not work as they will expect to be mated up
to an EG style engine harness.

You can also, take the innards from an EF Si or a 90-91 Integra and put them in your housing so it will bolt up, but make sure you get all the reluctor pickups and wheels in the right places.
good luck,
