What kind of microcontroller do i need
i am trying to build a breathalyzer watch for my senior design project. i am planning on using a alcohol sensor module that i ordered through parallex. This is the site for it below.

Of course, if you feel comfortable programing a PIC in assembler and have a programer for it - that might be cheaper. You can build a programing interface for a Propeller from a few transistors and use an existing RS-232 port.
