you'll probably be happier with a b18. its got more displacement, therefore, more torque... making for more spirited jaunts around town.

an ECU. and which ecu you need depends on what motor you decide to finally drop in. You should do some searching and reading on here. There are plenty of threads about this same topic and all your answers will be there.
