everything about the tuning will be easier if you do a simple MPFI manifold and distributor swap.

the MPFI obd0 and obd1 ECUs are completely tuneable, with free programs, or excellent "real" programs like hondata, neptune, ectune, etc.

DPFI stuff is NOT easy to tune. and, you need to add fuel injectors somewhere in the chargepiping, blah,blah,blah...

and the same setup with an MPFI manifold will make more power, be easier/cheaper to do, and probably be drastically more reliable because of the readily available tuning options, and the amount of tuners that a proficient with said programs.

the DPFI longblock is fine to boost..we've done it many times. i can do 200WHP, but not generally forever...but yeah, it can happen
