Auto to Manual Conversion

Car is going in for a auto to manual conversion w/ Exedy Organic Clutch and ACT XACT Streetlite Flywheel.
I have a few questions, I am unclear.

I have a LX and the tranny I got is a EX.
I am planning on getting a LX manual ecu. If I get a EX ecu, it will throw a code or something about vtec or something (maybe).

If I get a LX manual ecu, I take it to Honda to do a reflash? What do I need to bring with me? Ecu? Key? How much do they cost normaly?

the dealerships around me do not charge to programm a key or remote to your car. They do however charge a but load for a new key. You may need a bill of sale for the ecu that you buy but that should be it.
