Have you changed the sparkplugs, plug wires, distributor cap n rotor, and fuel filter or check the condition of those items?

Vtec may not be working, also could have slipped a tooth on timing, dirty or fouled plugs, clogged cat??

you can also play with the timing a little through the disr. but do that after the sparkplugs, plug wires, distributor cap n rotor, and fuel filter

x2 on the timing belt jumping a tooth. I would also double check your ignition components and replace the fuel filter. Bad gas is also a possibility.

first, you need to give us more info. When did it start doing this? Was it working fine, and then something happened? Has it not run right since the Minime was done, is it throwing any codes, did you pull them? ETC ETC ETC
