so, im new with hondas and i have a h22a swapped 95 si, with what i found out already, my vacuum lines arent connected right at all, and im not even sure where to start. the swap was done cheaply and just thrown together from what i can see.. but heres some pictures (sorry if they're not great) and if anyone could help me figure out whats wrong with the lines that'd be appreciated

thanks!

The nipple on the top of the throttle body should have a hose going from it to the MAP sensor, other than that I can't see anything else. Doesn't matter how half assed the vacuum connections look as long as there is vacuum with no leaks then it's fine.

okay thanks for the help, any idea why my car runs so rich then ? :/ i know i put new plugs in it and like a day or two later i checked them and they were completely black, i know i need to hook up the o2 sensor on the exhaust, but any other tips why it would run super rich?

Because the O2 sensor isn't hooked up.
