There are quite a few online stores that sell stock ECUs.
Xenocron.com just to name drop one!

Have you tried local junk yards?

FYI there are no stock Honda ECUs that will work with your B16a turbo build. They would require modification, or some sort of engine management unit. You would probably be better off buying an ECU that has already been chipped.

Unless you are going to socket and modify the ECUs yourself. In that case it would be cheaper to find an 110F P06 ECU and modify it to enable VTEC and IABs. P72 ECUs are up there in price these days. I've seen them from $200-$300 in stock trim.

You don't need a stock ecu with a turbo build :-)
You need a tunable engine computer.
You also don't need a p72 with a b16a. An obd1 modified p28 or equivalent will do the trick.

If you need further assistance, feel free to call the number in my signature (leave a voicemail).

Ya have only found stock ecu at Xenocron and ive noticede how expersive they are. Ive tryed local junk yards and no luck not to many around here. I know a stock ecu wont work on my setup I should have mentioned I plan on chipping it myself. I have a jdm p30 i got when I got my jdm motor but Since I planed on chipping it myself and considering it will be my first time i figured usdm would be easier than jdm. You mentioned buying a 110F P06 ECU and modify it to enable VTEC and IABs. Exactly what car was this out of and I have a pretty decent idea how to chip/ socket an ecu but how exactly do I mod it to enable VTEC and IAB.

Thanks for your input and help

You can buy a pre-chipped obd1 vtec ecu ready to go with a basemap for around the same its going to cost you to buy a stock ecu & chip it etc.

We don't normally but if you wish, we can sell you a DIY chip kit, vtec conversion kit & a stock ecu cheaper then a pre-chipped unit so you can give it a try :-)
