Default b18 Ls block w/b16vtec head in a 93 hatch. need help

my friend and i just put in a b18 ls block w/a b16 vtec head. we started it up the other day and it runs ok up til 3500rpm. once it hits 3500rpm it bounces it. it is like the ecu is redlining it 3500 instead of like 8000rpm. the check engine light is on but we cannot find out what code it is throwing because there is no light on the ecu. he is using a ecu out of a teg. gsr. how can he tell what code/codes it is throwing. also, does anyone have an idea of what could be wrong?

there is a plug under the dash on the passenger side. two wires...i think its a blue plug. just take a piece of wire stirpped on both ends jump the terminal. then turn the cars ignition to the on position and count the flashes...i have a code book here...if you cant figure out the codes, e-mail me and i'll tell you what the codes are.
