Default B18C1 SWAP IN AN EG HATCH PROBLEMSSSSS

whats up guys i swapped a jdm b18c1 obd2 swap into my eg hatch, and im havin several problems with it, its idling at 2k at all times, how do i stop this and lower the idle?
is the jdm engine harness the same as a usdm? cuz my mechanic guy told me he had to take a usdm harness and switch them up bcuz the jdm's harness plugs are all backwards, is this true?
also, should i use the jdm ecu with the swap or can i still use my old obd1 gsr ecu? r they any diffrent?
thanx alot guys

jdm harness is backwards. i had to use my ex harness w/ some modifications in order to get it to work.

how did you get it to fire up w/o knowing what harness to use?

You can still use your old ECU. Have you checked all your vacuum lines?
