Default EK swap,help pick OBD 1 or 2 motor...

I'm thinking about possibly picking up a 99 EK hatch sunday for a swap after selling my ls/turbo eg..

The guy had a SOHC VTEC in the car and has the obd-2 to obd-1 harness..

I'm down to a h22 swap which i can get for 2k local but would need mounts 600 dollers and possibly a shift linkage not sure though..

A LS swap for another turbo LS

A B16 swap for turbo..

Here is the problem the car is obd-2. I really want a 0bd-1 motor so i can run uberdata like on my EG

My eg put down 225hp on 10lbs on a stock motor i'm looking to make about the same power with this setup.

If I get a h22 swap i will probably put on a 50 shot with bolt on's..Either the b16 or the LS will be boosted..

If I buy the obd-1 swap what do i need to make this work exactly??

If I buy a obd-2 swap what would need to be done to convert it to obd-1??

The guy has a obd-2 to obd-1 conversion harness but i'm not sure how it works..Will the ek plugs plug into the obd-1 motor like plug and play??

If I decide to do a h22 the least likely of the 3 i will buy a obd-2 motor swap its just gonna be a much more expensive swap..

i've searched this so please no flaming just help a brotha out..

to use a uberdata or hondata you just use a obd1 ecu like a p28 and chip them..

For example could I buy a obd-2 LS motor,tranny,axles etc basically get the tranny mount thats needed and drop it in and it be plug and play has far has plugs plugging right up like a LS in a EG is??

Then just run the obd-2 motor off of a chipped P06 obd-1 ecu with uberdata useing the jumper harness for the ECU to go from obd-2 down to obd-1??

What needs to be changed??

Sorry for being a newb i've just never messed with this obd-2 crap but i sold my eg wanting a ek for the look and never researched the bs beforehand..

you buy a obd-2 motor so it would be easier to swap the harness. and then to run obd-1 ecu, all you need is the jumper at the ecu and a obd-1 ecu. everything in the engine bay is obd-2

if you plan on using bigger injectors you will have to use the obd1 plugs for them. if you liked uber you will love crome.
