Default 1994 Integra Auto just plain slow?

Heres the thing problem I have a 94 teg 4 door auto and its just dogshit slow is that how its supposed to be? I don't think so because I'm a valet so I drive almost anything and I've driven a few like mine they're all bearably slow but mine is unbearable.

When I first bought the car it ran like crap blue smoke everywhere and the engine shivered like crazy. Well the original engine kicked the bucket so I swapped it out for a 91 b18a1 engine I got off of a wrecked teg. One week later about 30 hours of labor I swapped over the b18a1 from the manual 91 teg to the 94 auto. Low and behold this engine runs super smooth, BUT its still slow, By slow I mean its really slow to revv up if I floor it in neutral it almost feels like it bogs but after 3500rpm it feels a little bit better. The Only thing I've done to help the problem is advance the ignition to the max ofcourse we all know this can lead to problems aswell but its the only thing that helps. So I suspect the problem is in the car now something electrical or maybe even the trans? Please help me

I've done most of the tune up Only things i have left are cap and rotor besides that I've replaced it all I don't think the cap and rotor could be causing this do you?

91 b18a1 obd0 only has 130 hp, your 94 integ is used to the b18b1 obd1 which is 142hp. 12hp difference..

maintenance required is telling you to go to the dealer to get an oil change. theres a button below the steering wheel just hold and itll shut off. check engine is telling you to find a friend with a snap-on scanner.

Auto Tegs are incredibly slow and your b18a1 isn't helping. Auto--> Manual swap should be your next priority.
