Default h22a running lean

Yo guys, car is running lean with a chipped p13 using a spoon program. I,H, and 2 1/2 straight exhaust. I know it needs to be tuned but for now with the lack of money is there anything I can do to richin it up. I'm running bkr7e plugs and use 93 oct. Fuel pressure is set at 45. I know that spoon programs have highly advanced ignition and can cause detonation making the plugs white like they are but it runs so much better than the stock rom and would like to run this rom until I get it tuned, unless there's know way to make it run richer. Thanks, sorry for the long explanation I figured it would save some time with posts.

i had the same problem with my 96 h22 accord cause my accord harness uses a resistor box for the injectors and the my motor which was a 98 jdm h22a doesnt use a resistor box so that is what caused it to run lean, i would suggest getting it tuned cause h22 p13 ecus run rich from the factory.

Just unplug ur o2 sensor or map sensor. Then u won't run lean. : )... j/k. If ur timing is really advanced on the ecu try turning ur dizzy and retarding the time a little. Probly best thing to do is just to drive it easy for now and wait to get it tuned as long as it's not that bad, or if u're worried it's too bad u can just run ur stock rom back on till u get it tuned.

It'll just run in closed loop that way. Yah it should run richer but not rite. I'll try to take a picture of a plug so u guys can c if its rite or not. I should be running a 9 series plug rite, I'm running a colder 7 instead.
