Are you running header out? When I first did my swap I was running header out and when I rev it, it would die because there was not enough back pressure.

i just swapped a 0bd2 b18b in my eg and i used the whole obd2 wiring harness, just had to add one wire for the tach it all plugged right up. I also used a pr4 ecu 93ls and everything works fine and the sensor that is on top of the motor i had to disconnect because it opens up and pulls air in and the idle goes to like 1500 when i unplugged it it went down to 1000 and no problems since

Most likely. What Codes (check engine light) do you have (you should)?

Open header WILL NOT cause this.

IF the ECU just plugged to your car with no jumper harness (READ: a special harness that converts ECUs of other OBDs to a certain OBD), your ECU is OBD. You sure it does not say P75 on the side of it?

If it came from a 92-93, its the OBD-1 Integra motor. Check to make sure all the vacuum lines are (correctly) hooked up.

Make sure there is no oil in the cylinders, ETC. Also, check your timing belt to make sure you didnt jump a tooth.
