Default D16z6 w/ VX ECU

Did a qucik search only found..."Get the p28...etc". Anyway, I'm getting a D16z6 from a friend but he doesn't have the ECU. I still have my ECU for my VX engine (D15z1). Would there be any chance of damaging the D16 if I ran the VX ECU with it?

Cons:

Check engine light for oxygen sensor (VX uses a 5 wire)
It will run lean - possibly dangerously lean
It will have a **** rev limiter

Bottom line?

GET A P28 ECU - PERIOD
