Default P28 in 99 civic

I put my P28 ecu with the conversion harness in my 99 dx and the idle is a bit jumpy and when ever i release the gas the car kinda jerks, im pretty sure this is because of the IACv if not what u guys think, and if it is what can be done to fix this. Also i might be crazy but it seems the car is a bit slower is this possible?

So why would you run a sohc vtec ecu on a non-vtec motor? Put the old ecu back in and run it until your done with the y8. Then you can run the p28.
