Icon2 PR4 ecu in a JDM B16a?

i got a chance to get a PR4 ecu for my JDM b16a that has been chipped we ran it and it seemed good... but is the PR4 ecu a good choice to go with the b16a?

pr4 works (with shift light vtec), just a little lean when vtec hit, get an vafc, it does small tuning and engages vtec, for pr3 it need to be chip in order to have vtec, no speed governor signal to ecu

That pr4 might be modded, but how well?

You know a pr4 is a non vtec ecu for a 1.8l right?
