Default OBD2 b18cR into EF: run OBD0 with chipped pr3 or OBD1 with chipped p28?

if I went OBD0, I would use a Mugen chipped pr3 and all my b16 electronics (distributor, injectors, sensors)

OR

convert the car to OBD1 and use a PYR chipped p28 and use the b18cR electronics (distributor, injectors, sensors).

Which setup would run better for a mild NA buildup (i/h/e, flywheel)?

if you use the OBD0 set up make sure that the distributor bolt pattern on the OBD0 B16A distributor matches to the head itself.

i say rewire the car to obd1 you will have more available ecu programs... but obd0 is not bad either.. i know that the obd1 distributor can be rewired to run as obd0 if you go down to obd0 i think you might need new injectors also. someone correct me if im wrong

personally i would run the OBD1 electronics.

ODB1 dist's are more available, why would you want a 10+ year old dist?
ODB1 ECU's are more available...example P28,p30,p61,p72

just an opinion

Im in the middle of a OBD0 swap, chipped pr3. engine is from a 2000 civic SI b16a2. Shell is a 92 civic hatch

apperently some honda tech from a dealership sold us the engine and shell, had videos of the car running, he had swapped this engine into several other cars. Said the wiring would be plug and play (if not he would fix it), he would wire the vtec in (gave us another harness), and now is nowhere to be found.

can someone point me in the right direction, info please!

The EWH looks to be modified, has a modified distributor, getting some spark, have fuel pressure, plugs are wet, compression, and its in timing.

im going through the ECU pinout, ill post some more info i find.
