Default d16a6 swap on a DX ??sluggish! using b16 injectors ok ?too rich??bogging?

hi guyz.. got some question and concern again..
well i did a complete swap on a 1988 DX hatch to 89' D16a6 DPFI TO MPFI
about a week ago..the motor that i put in supposely have bout 80k ...
and it shows too..valvetrain dun look burnt or too brown...anywayz..

i adjusted the timming, it sounds ok..since i dun't have a tec or timming belt cover to check..i belive i use 1 or 2 b16 injector on it... so after running it for a bit..
i check the plugs..it was originally brown..and when i check it..it's liek
black and bunrt looking...
BTW it's got a new dizzy, and i just changed out the spark plugs.
after i drove it around ...
it still feel kinda sluggish..maybe boggin at times and dies out at
time when i drive it. and it does feel like and A6 at all...feels like a stock d15
so what should i recheck or check to make sure
the car is running rite...or maybe change out the injectors to stock??

HELP WILL BE APPRICIATED !!

Check your timing again both cam and ignition timing.

FYI all stock civic integra injectors flow 240cc. There are some prelude injectors that have a higher flow rate. The only difference in civic/integra injectors is whether they are peak and hold or saturated.

There are two types of injectors, peak and hold, and saturated. I believe the peak and hold require a resistor box and were found on the pre 92 civics.

hf's have long *** gear ratios, you'll know if you can do 105 in third gear.

i know there's easier ways to check, but that's the funnest way.
