Iight so I got my hands on this throttlebody to put on my D16z6 but the throttlebody I got doesn’t have a map sensor and my original has two, and theres no place to put a second map sensor, if I were to swap the TBs will it effect anything, since I wont be able to connect a mapsensor? Also, can anyone tell what TB I have, or tell me how I can findout?

You don't have 2 map sensors. The other one is most likely the throttle position sensor like the other guy said.
The new tb you got might have come from a car with the map sensor mounted to the firewall and connected to it via vacuum hose. It doesn't need to be physically mounted to the throttle body.

ohh...I see lol finally figured that out, so is it cool to change them? will any problems occur since one sensor isnt connected?
Still would like to find out what kinda TB i have...anyone how i can findout?

Both TPS and MAP sensors will be interchangeable.
I have no idea on identifying the tb. You could try measuring the opening in mm, but I think almost all D series are the same size anyway. The fact that the map sensor is romotely mounted should help narrow it down too. All I know is that my '92 LX (canadian) has the map sensor mounted on the firewall, not the throttle body.
