use a simple 3D mappable ignition controller like the megajolt or simelar. or use a megasquirt with TPS/RPM inputs. you could use the OE 16v ECU and make it control only ign but it will be poor and the advance curves will be very conservative for making decent power.

cant help you on management issues but the conversion is easy enough, if you have the right tools you will be fine
