are they black and smell like fuel? then you didnt burn them.. they are fouled. thats why the car is stumbling. the fmu dumps so much fuel it cant be burnt during the combustion process

no, you can get some brake cleaner or some wd40 and a wire brush and clean off the plugs.

as for fixing that problem... get rid of the fmu and get real fuel management, like uberdata

I was thinking about uberdata but I don't know anyone that can chip the ECU and I haven't found any solid information on the Internet how to do it.

Just use this instead.It doesnt pay to be cheap when it comes to cars.Going fast isnt cheap.If it is it likely wont last long. Yeah do what he said and invest in a wideband and uberdata those are your best tools. http://home.mn.rr.com/keebler65/honda/
