verify that you have the correct plug plugged in for your iacv. you may need to pull it off and have it cleaned.

i had the same problem in my integra last year...when i would drive it it would hit 2500 and buck oike i hit the rev limiter...then would stall when warm....it was my map sensor...even tho it threw a code 14 like yours ..it was the map sensor..check to make sure it is correct/ getting vacuum,connected or just a plain bad sensor
