Default 93 Si vtec to non vtec, wiring issues?

Hi guys, I used the search but the only things I could find are the more popular non-vtec to vtec wiring guides when swapping a gsr or b16a2 or a vtec engine into the eg hatches.
My issue is I would like to drop an LS turbo into my 1993 Civic Si, which is wired for vtec.
What would the process be for that? Sorry if I missed the answer in my search, or if this is an insanely dumb question.
My most likely swap would be an OBD1 LS engine
Thanks

VTEC won't matter if the ECU isn't looking for it.

Okay, so it's a total non issue. Would I get a constant CEL?

Again, it won't matter. If the ECU isn't looking for it then you won't get a CEL either.

Easy enough, that's why I couldn't find anything on it. Sorry to clog the forums.
Thanks for your help!
