Default Stay obd0 or go obd1?

Im putting a b18a into my 90 crx and i was wondering if i should stay non obd or if i should go obd1? Im putting this engine in for the sole purpose of boosting it. Ive heard that its better to go obd1 if youre going turbo for some reason....i think it has something to do with hondata? I know that there is a guy on here running hondata with a non obd car so im a litte confused. What are the pros and cons of non obd and obd1? Why is it better to go obd1 for hondata?

Also, can someone on here post a link to a wiring diagram for the obd0 to obd1 conversion? Thanks

Sean

Why not run a Zdyne in there ? , It will plug right in, You will be able to run up to 28 lbs of boost and it is very user friendly. I have tune many cars with the Zdyne including my own and it's works very well.

The drawback on ZDYNE vs Hondata is that Zdyne does NOT datalog. However, the Zdyne is still a great unit, do a search for "ZDYNE" and read some of the threads by people who are running it. It comes with a really good base program and you can tune it on the fly without needing someone with tuning software(Hondata 4B, for example) or an emulator. GL.
