Yes, the D15B7 MAP sensor is on the firewall. So its connected, right? What sensor on the throttle body is not connected?

it is, and the sensor on the throttle body is also a map sensor, so im assuming the d16b motor in it is newer. which one should i have pluged in?

my big problem is that i dont have wires to plug into the VTEC sensors, what should i do about that?

The MAP sensor on the D16 should be connected. Does the ECU match the D16 engine?

Post the numbers you see on the ECU. It's located behind the front passenger kick panel.
