Default EG/GSR swap - CEL codes 1, 21, and 43 and running poorly

My EG w/GSR was engine codes 1, 21, and 43. I have double checked all my wiring to the ecu and all the parts came from the same car. Before motor was pulled I heard it run and no CELs I put it in and now I have them. It runs good at WOT and MID but off idle falls on its face. Thanks for the help.

Have you properly reset the ECU to see whether all codes return?

did you wire the vtec sensor? no idea what model civic you have.
you say vtec is great, but it shouldnt be with code 21, might just be mistaking the gsr secondaries with vtec?

have you bothered following the service manual for the engine cels youre getting? if not just dld the manual thats ehat theyre for.
