Default EG B16A swap help?

Hey I need help on a swap you guys might know. Its a Civic EX getting a JDM B16A swap. My only problem is about the engine harness. I noticed that the D16Z6 motor has a MAP sensor on the throttle body and I also notice theres a EVAP purge solenoid. How would I get around this when the JDM B16A doesn't have a MAP sensor on the throttle body? Should I switch it with the D16Z6 throttle body? Also what to do about the EVAP purge solenoid? This is the only two problems that got me stumped. :a:

For the map sensor, you can head off to a junk yard and find a Civic with a firewall mounted MAP sensor (I think some sedans are setup that way) and use it. I think you can even remove yoru D16Z6's and just run some vacuum line into it and secure it to the firewall and it should work (never tried that way but I've heard of it being done).

Not sure about the purge solenoid. I wasn't aware JDM B16A's didn't have them? I'd image you could reuse the solenoid off your engine? Sorry, I haven't done a JDM swap myself.
