Icon2 b20 swap help??

Got a b20b in my 92 dx hatch. Its been in limp mode since i got it. Ive changed the ecu harness and distributer. Its all obd1 but i think the intake manifold may be an obd2 ls manifold. Could the wrong year manifold cause the car to go into limp mode? It wont pass 3k but sometimes randomly if you key bang it and reset the ecu it will rev all the way out like it should. Any idea what this could be? Or if it could be from the intake manifold?

Thats the problem bro i cant find the button that makes the light flash. I was told its up underneath the dash on the passanger side and my cars gutted and i still cant find it. theres just bundles of wires. i got the car with the swap in it like that. But the kid i got it from changed the manifold and put a ls one on it because it wasnt idling right with the b20 manifold. Thats why i thought it may be the manifold. But is there any other way i can check the code for the cel?
