it would be cheaper to get a new ECU ~$200 and get a 4 wire o2 ~50

if i were you, i'd get a ECU for the motor that you might wanna swap in the future.. like a d16z6 or something so get a P28 with 4 wire O2.... then chip and put a VX map on the P28...

then when you get a z6 vtec you don't have to buy a new ECU so you're set..

it's a little bit more involved but you save money and you gather new toys in the process for future swaps/upgrades
