IMO, no.
If you want to pay madd loot outcha butthole you could get it done by a couple places. Erick's Racing use to be able to reprogram OBD2 ecu's, he use to be in cahoots with G-force who use to be able to chip OBD2 ecu's. G-force went outta business a few years ago. Or you can send it overseas to a tuner in Japan....but its really not worth it. You're better off converting to OBD1 via jumper harness & OBD1 ecu.
If you go OBD1, your in good hands, OBD1 ecu's are compatible with OBD2 sensors, distributors, injectors, etc. Honda made OBD1/2 electronics backwards & foward compatible.
So, you can leave your engine completely OBD2 spec and just run a jumper & OBD1 ecu and all will run fine.
