Default ls swap in 97 civic hx

A friend of mine has installed a B18B in place of the single cam. The engine is out of a 92 integra. The ecu and distributor are out of a 97 integra.

The swap went great, the car starts and idols fine. The problem is when you try to rev the car it wants to bog down, and won't go anywhere.

I know it is a mess, but i am just trying to help a brutha out.

Any info is greatly appreciated!!!

if you rev it slow enough it would just barely make it there. kind of sounds like lack of fuel, but i really don't think that's the problem...

check the map sensor connection as well, the hx probably had a TB mounted map, and depending on which TB he used it might not have been, so it could have gotten forgotten or not plugged in.
