Default Will I get a CEL with a USDM ECU on a JDM B18C?

I have a JDM B18C and wanna get a USDM P72 instead of the JDM one. Since JDM engines don't have a connector for the EVAP sensor, if I hook up a USDM ECU, am I going to get a check engine light, probably code 90 or 92? If so, how would I get around this? Anybody have any experience with this? Just wanna know before I throw down $300 for one. Thanks.

No, you shouldn't get a code for that.
You have a 95 EX, correct?

can you explain why i wouldnt get a code? I mean, I have this extra connector hanging loose in the engine bay, and won't the ECU be monitoring it?
