Default D15B swap questions

I am going to swap a D15B Vtec engine into my 1996 hatch. My question is will I have to convert to obd1 since my car is obd2. And also should I use the P28 ecu. If I have to convert to obd1 what is needed. Also if there is anything else I might need beside the obvious let me know.

ummm i dont think it's legal for you to convert OBD2 to OBD1, im pretty sure about the requirements about a swap: the engine has to be same year or newer and you cant put a truck motor in a passenger car.... but why would you want a replace your d16 for a d15? is it because the D15 is a Vtec???

First off I know it illegal but I don't really care a lot of things people do on here are ilegal but we still do it. Secondly I don't know what form of crack your on but where the hell do u get truck engine from???? Lastley my D16y7 is dead the D15B is cheap and supposetley a pretty potent D motor.And yes it has vetakkkkkkk.
So do I need to convert to obd1 and is chipped p28 a good ecu to use. What is need to convert?

the B20 from a CRV is considered a truck motor.... but why dont you put out a little extra money and get a better motor and make your car legal? ive seen some d15 make pretty good power but most were turboed.. anyways about your swap, i dont know much about it because no one does those kind of swaps. so... gl
