Youre going to need to elaborate...

What is your exact setup and what exactly are the problems you are encountering (idle problems, no boost, etc)?

either that or it's the disfibulator.
Really though, you have provided no info for us to go off of. Try posting some more info like your set-up Other then drag kit and 91 civic.
How do you know it's slower? stuff like that. So until then, your rite it's slow as hell.

Take the manifold/turbo assembly off of the back of the motor and put it up front.

i'm running all the basics that come with the drag gen 3 turbo kit on a stock b18a. the car is building boost fine but thats the only time the car has any kind of power. until the boost hits the car can't get out of it's own way.

Go take your car to someone that knows what they are doing. Seriously, if you can't explain what is going on with your car any better than that then your going to do more damage than good by going and trying to fix it yourself.
