Default vtec dizzy on nonvhead ?

swapped a d15b7 in my ek hatch. Running a p06 with a conversion harness. Runs but is misfiring bad especially in the lower RPMs.

When I did the swap I used my obd2 dizzy off my y8 head becuz of the connector issue. (motor was blown) Would this cause the misfire? do i need different spark plugs with the different dizzy? i chcked for vacuum leaks, none i have a cel so ill pull the codes and post later.thanks
i have the d15 dizzy so i might just splice it in but i wana be sure it will fix it before hacking up my harness
