Either of them will work, I would stay away from the FMU IMO.

Get an OBD2 to OBD1 conversion harness, Hondata s200 with boost option, datalogging, launch control, wot shift, and you should be set.

Oh, you wanted a realistic answer. I myself would use the V-AFC and stay the hell away from the fmu.

SMC should work with OBD2, FWIW. It's not my favorite method, but it does work.
