yeah you won't feel the IAB since you have a B16a but still the vtec is like at 4400 on the gsr ecu. I would get a B16a ecu to match the motor or do something like a vtec fuel controller to correct it.

the ecu sends the signal to the vtec solenoid which turns the vtec on. make sense?

and b16's do not have IAB's. only b18's and h's.
