Icon2 What management should I get for my 99 SI Turbo project?

I have a 99 SI. Pretty much factory. Has an intake, greddy header, and different muffler (done before I got it). I have a turbo I want to install at 6-8 PSI. Don't want to change internals or anything else. Just want to run low boost with factory set up. What computer management system should I get that would be the easiest and quickest. Hondata seems to be the norm with everyone I talk to but I don't really want to switch to an OBDI. Is there a way I can keep my OBDII. Like I said before I am not looking to run massive amount of boost or mods. Just something to make it get around 180-200WHP. I know about engines but not the import game. I mainly rebuild mustang engines(big difference from a honda). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. can I run the factory fuel pump on this setup as well. I know I have to get bigger injectors but I am not sure if the fuel pump is up to the job or not.

If you have to ask these questions then you are no where NEAR ready to even start thinking about boosting your car.

#1 - You don't have to switch to OBDII. You only have to run an OBDI ECU via a conversion harness and the ECU has to be socketted and chipped. THEN You can run whatever EMS you want-<CROME>, Hondata, Neptune... It's not the same thing.

#2 - If you still don't want to convert anything over then be prepared to fork out about a grand to run the AEM unit with your stock ECU.

#3 - You probably should ask your TUNER what they are proficient on then follow their advice and buy whatever it is they tell you to.

#4 - What turbo?

#5 - A stock B-series engine is good for about 300 horsepower.

#6 - There is nothing EASY about boosting a car. Nothing.

#7 - You have too much research to do. PSI means nothing.
