If you are going to do a mini me swap, just convert the car to OBD1 so you can run a P28 ECU from a d16z6, in which you will need OBD0-1 conversion harness for Distributor as well as the ECU.

Below is a link how to convert the car from DPFI to MPFI. It's actually not that tough at all.

no. you have to convert your car to mpfi as the factory wiring is wired for 2 injectors

to do that you will also need to replace the chassis harness....or at least change a lot of plugs and add lots of new wiring.
