Default B16B Ecu on a GSR Motor ?

Is this a bad idea ? Its the only ecu I have available as of now and want to get my car running . Could this cause any damage.

You'll be running slightly lean, and plus your secondaries will not open. It can cause damage if you run it for too long.

my stock ctr ecu hits vtec at 6000, its good enough if you drive around normal, keep revs under 4000rpm just until you get the right ecu...

no like everyone else said and there reasons plus ur timing should be off if i am correct. at least that how it was with my car running a different ecu(d16y7.5 with an untuned p06 from a d15b7. my timing was way off and the car ran like ****.) so i wouldnt even try cause if u hurt that motor then ur deffinately going to hurt your wallet.
