Default which ecu for jdm b16???

alright, i have a jdm b16a from hmotorsonline.com
( http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc...age&item=30003) and I need an ecu (shit was stolen). which one would i get. i looked at www.car-part.com I looked for a 92 Honda civic: Elec Cont Unit (ECU), 1600 (EX & SI), MT, Fed and Canada. Is that the right one, if so, will any of these work?

Dude, do yourself a favor and dependinr on year just use a PR# ecu. It will help you out in the long run no buying an ECU, then chipping it and all that other stuff. If your car is a OBD1 though then I guess just pick up the P28 and then have it chipped, but whatever, have fun... ( I hate ECU's!!!)

Later,

If you want the knock sensor, use a USDM P30, it's a P28 with a knock sensor, and it came on USDM B16 sols like mine. They are rare and $$$ though. I would just use a P28 and get it chipped. I can take care of the chipping for you if you need, I'm a professional electronics technician..
I can furnish references if you want, I've chipped a lot of ECUs..
