Default car dies if i dont step on the gas

i recently swap a b16a3 in to my eg,it seems to die when i let go of the gas,when its about to die the battery light comes up.im using a p28 ecu for now,the ecu is stock is not modded or anythin,the car ran fine with another stock p28 ecu .vtec was kicking in at 45k.do you all think is the ecu or do i have another problem.

If your battery light comes on it's a charging problem. Check the battery and alternator and replace as necessary.
