Finally got it running, but I had to run it on the D16 injectors because the B16s are broken, I suppose that could be a possibility but I didnt think my injectors were much smaller. Also I think it could be that a vacuum hose is not hooked up correctly, I used this diagram here: http://www.geocities.com/droppedcrxsi/vacuum1.htm , but instead of just one cylinder like the purge, I have two and the one on the right side is unused. I'm going to check my timing in a little but I don't think that would account for how slow it is.

its super sluggish, if feel no difference in vtec, it just gets louder, and out of vtec it pulls worse then my d16

Take off the distributor cap and see if your rotor is loose.

sounds like timing, mine did the same thing cuz i thought the timing would be set from it last ran. but that was not the case it was retarded to like tdc. set it to 16deg (running n2o) 145 on the dyno. now i have it at 19 and i just retard it before i go to the track.

that reminds me... did you change your timing belt during the swap? i didn't and decided to race at the track the night i got it running
it didn't feel like it was pulling like it should so we pulled into the pit and it died suddenly (thank got at idle)
turns out the belt was stretched... i guess that happens when a motor sits for 11 years
good luck, cause after that it pulled pretty hard in vtec.

thanks for the advice everyone, those are all possibilities and my battery light is coming on and i just got an optima redtop, and the light is still on so i might bench my alternator to see if thats it, unfortunatly the car is at my home in flagstaff and im at school at asu in tempe so i only go home every so often
