Default Tuning for boost.. 90 CRX Si

Ok.. I have heard everything from hondata to chrome and turboedit. I am going turbo with my 90 CRX Si. I plan to stay OBD0 with it at the moment. What system is the best to use with it in OBD0 form? I want to run relitivly low boost till I get a bottom end built to swap with, but I plan to have everything running and use it to drive till the bottom end is ready to go in.

best for obd0 I think is turboedit.

I really much rather use obd1 and crome though.

How hard is the obd1 switch to do? What has to be changed?

What's the point of converting over to OBD1 if you have an OBD0 engine?
