Default Slow JDM B20???HELP

hey just got done with a Jdm b20 swap in a 89 Dx hatch. well its converted to obd1 and we used 92-up style injectors, and used all the Obd2 sensors like the dizzy, well we only have one check engine light after we started the car code 43, its got a wierd idle, but runs and revs up good, but has no power. its got a skunk 2 intake, Jdb b16 throttle body, aem fuel rail, header, new plugs, wires, everything is brand new. well anyone ran into this before, oh its got a P8R head.

Depending on the problem, the ECU will sometimes go into "limp" mode. In some cases, like a bad 02 sensor, the ECU will run extra-rich maps without the limp mode. Limp mode means you can't rev past 3 grand and the ECU LED is solid (obd0).
