Default B16B swap into a 94 coupe?

I am putting in a B16B swap from a 00 CTR and have a question about some of the wiring. So I am putting my D16Z6 engine harness onto the engine and noticed that the B16B does not have a VTEC pressure switch, but my Z6 has one. And the harness im putting on the engine has the connector there. Should I just leave it unplugged or buy a vtec sol assembley from a 2000 SI?

Also to the B16B has a knock sensor but the Z6 does not have one. Is it fine to just leave it unplugged?

I will be having the car tunned with Hondata S300 if that makes a difference. Thanks for the help in advanced.

tuck the plug under the thermostat dealy, if you get a chipped ecu you can turn off the knock sensor. if not you will have cel. hondata will let the ecu ignore the cel

You can get a USDM VTEC solenoid with the pressure switch and replace it with the B16B solenoid.

Well I did the swap and figured out everything. I tapped the provision that was in the vtec sol and used the pressure switch from my d16. Vtec works great. I am getting it tuned tonight and can't wait to see what she will put down. Thanks for the help
