OBD 1 is easier to work with than OBD 2. OBD1 has less connections. A P28 is an OBD 1/ OBD2 SOHC VTEC ECU. Most P28 ECU's are 92-95. There are some not many P28 OBD 2 ECU (96-98), most of the time is P2P.

the tranny doesnt affect actual power. It just affects how the power is used. You will still gain HP with your stock tranny, but with a different tranny it will have more acceleration because of the different gear ratios

is it really worth the time and trouble for a lousy sohc head??

again pardon my ignorance i am b18b crazy.

swap in a 92 thru 95 ls motor. can be done for 1800 with mounts, just use the ls ecu.

130hp and more torque and a better power plant than any sohc vtec.

did i mention?
less wiring?? ;D
