it will throw codes for VTEC
The fuel maps are different so it may throw a code for that too.
And maybe a knock sensor.
But the harness will work no problem. are both motors the same OBD2?

Re: (ifIexplode)
you will need the y7 computer. If the harness is from an automatic ex, it will work. You will have a couple extra plugs for the knock sensor and the vtec. If it is from a manual, you will need to change the pins for the iacv and get a pig tail from either a dx or an automatic ex, and add a third wire. I would suggest using the intake manifold from the y8. This will ensure the wire harness will reach the sensors. If it is from a manual car you will have to use the y7 throttle body with it and leave the y8 iacv attached to the intake manifold to plug the holes.
