Default s2 throttlebody question

i ordered an 68mm skunk2 throttlebody that was supposed to use all sensors and fit my d16y8, however theres a spot for the map sensor, but not for an iacv, also it has an idle adjust, it will fit otherwise?

the car is auto, ok when i first got it and noticed that i took off the original tb and blocked off the iacv to see what would happen, it ran fine but idled at like 500rpm or even lower, once i got on the gas it drove fine, theres an adjust screw so i tried that but with the iacv blocked it had no effect. on the s2 throttlebody there is an adjust screw that is independent since theres no iacv

id say just get it on and get it to work. but AT tb has the iacv on it. and not having an iacv or having a messed up one can make it idle funny. but if you can get it to work. do a DIY thread so others can do that and bypass the iacv.

ok only problem is on skunk2s instructions it says check the tps voltage before transfering it to the new tb, and set the voltage on the new tb to match. I dont know how to test or set it, never heard of it.
