Default Bogging and idle problems after JDM B16A swap in ek sedan

I recently swapped a jdm b16a in my ek sedan and it has some problems. when i run the car and floor the pedal it gets stuck and boggs. don't know what the problem is. also when i start the car it idles from 2-2500 rpm and after it warms up a bit and restart the car it idles downs to 500-1000 rpm, but when i drive it after a while it goes down to like 100-300 rpm. besides that everything is good and runs great. I'm Running a stock P2T ecu. was wondering did i do something wrong with the swap? or is there a problem that needs to be solve. Help

check if you swapped the idle air control valve plug and see if its mismatched
and see crank fluctuation sensor has been bypassed

Have you pulled the codes or are you just guessing that that is the only code?

I had one of my shop buddy checked for me and he said i might need to run a jumper to a 0bd1 ecu, but not sure. I didn't see for myself,but my buddy said that its just the oxygen sensor when he did it.

Get the code your self to make sure what the problem is . Your vehicle is in limp mode.

p0113 - Make sure your IAT is plugged in and is getting proper signal
p1106 - Check your MAP sensor
p0122 - Make sure your TPS is plugged in, and attach a voltmeter to it to make sure it's within spec. If not, there's a writeup on how to adjust it.

You could also have the TPS and MAP sensor plugged backwards. What are the colors you currently have connected to each sensor.

Reset the ECU to see whether all or some of those codes repeat after running the engine.
