you have a B16? or B18? (based on your user name)

P72 is a GSR
P73 is an ITR

I'd convert to OBD2b and pick up a P2T from a 99-00 SI or convert to OBD1 and run a P30.

which place in chicago did you take it to?

Running the 99-00 Si computer requires CKF sensor on the oil pump which the OBDII JDM B16's dont have. Also, a VTEC oil pressure switch is required, which OBDII JDM VTEC Motors dont have. This would cost you a lot of money to upgrade the electronics on the motor and then get an ECU.

I would run a OBDI USDM or JDM P30 or chipped P28 and a jumper harness, unless you can find a OBDII JDM B16 computer. You can buy the harness and an ECU for your application from this website. http://www.locashracing.com
