Default just finished the LS swap

well i just finished putting an OBD2 LS in my 93 hatch. after working out bugs and getting the p06 chipped, it still runs a little funny. acts like it has no power until about 2300 rpms. then it takes off out of nowhere. i've checked the distributor as told to see if it was loose, its not. i don't know what else to look for. it does have an exhaust leak right behind the converter i believe. i was told by one person it would hurt it in the low rpms but another guy said that would help it. i don't know but someone help me out.

i used the harness off the b18 cause it was still on the motor. i bought the swap from a friend and i have no idea what ecu he gave me, but the plugs plugged up and all that. but this honda guy in huntsville, who knows exactly what he's talking about, said the computer was wrong. he chipped the p06 or whatever and it has ran good, good enough to break traction in 4th gear. but i guess the timing is a little off. he told me to see if the distributor was loose and it wasn't. but maybe the timing is different i dunno. i'm gonna get the p75 whenever i get the money. found 2 today for 200 bucks and i don't have that right now.

i have the same setup and same year car. Are you using the OBD2 dizzy with your stock OBD1?? it shouldn't plug up unless you changed the pins. Did it throw any codes? mines has codes.

another question: how did you plug up the alternator?

BTW Congrats on the swap. You're gonna love it.

r u sure u got the right chip because if not your timing is off and your motor is bogging out because its not getting enough fuel.
