Default B16 swap in 98 civic dx...bogging,backfiring,help!!!

I just got my car running a little better.was running on 3 cylinders with bosch plugs(never go too autozone).The car however still pops!Allthough it use too do it through the intake,its only out the exhuat now.Its also very boggy....not running right at all.Vtec seems too kick in late around 5800-6000.I did a fuel pressure test today and it was at 35 psi...seems a little low too me.I have seen alot of people adjust it too 40-50..Any idea what it could be?

check the spark wires going to the right order of firing, does it pops or backfire at idle ?
