stay OBD0 or go OBD1?
Im swaping in a 97 b18c1 into an 88 crx si, so the engine is OBD2, my problem is I dont know if I should go OBD0 or go OBD1? what are the drawbacks to each?
If I go OBD1 I need...
OBD0>OBD1 harnes
chipped P28
OBD1 distributor and injectors???? will OBD2 distributor and injectors work with OBD1?
4 wire O2
I think thats about it, I will figure out the wireing later.
for OBD0 I will need
ZDYNE 2 wire conversion ECU
90-91 ls distributor, or OBD0 B16 distributor
OBD0 injectors
I think thats it, if I missed anything please let me know.
so what do you think will be cheaper, or easier to do, give me your opinions.
thanks

Re: stay OBD0 or go OBD1? (DOHCarp)
It would be cheaper to go with a 1992+ ECU. First of all, Zdyne conversions are not cheap. They cost around $400, which is MUCH more than it would cost you to buy an OBDI P72 or chipped P28. And don't forget that you cannot use an OBDII distributer with a pre-1992 ECU (but it WILL work with a 1992+ ECU). If you went with the Zdyne conversion, you would need a 1G JDM B16A distributer (the LS distributer won't bolt to the head). And you won't find one easily or for less than $200 (or so). So even if you can't do the wiring conversion yourself and have to buy adaptor harnesses, it is cheaper to use a 1992+ ECU.
