D17a1 in vtec car help!!

Bought a used 2002 civic ex sedan a/t for 1200 off a crackhead awhile back (little $ and needed a car) and after noticing problems (vtec code,o2 sensor code,egr code,srs and brake light on,no a/c,no power lock or keyless entry,no int wipers,revs to 4k rpm and stutters unless I let off the gas a lil to catch gear) I thoroughly inspect the engine and found (has d17a1 engine,egr PLUG/NO egr,vtec PLUG/NO vtec solenoid,only one o2 plug up front) it has a non vtec engine w/ vtec wiring and ecu considering the codes,engine stamp and plugs that go to nothing.after research came to the conclusion I just need the correct ecu(which one!?). Also can't find the 2nd o2 plug harness that I'm guessing should be under the car but can't find it..currently have the o2 hole(after cat)filled with an old sensor I cut wires off of. ANY HELP OR SUGGESTIONS!!!
