Default Trouble with my swapped hatch...? HELP!!!

Well, i bought a swapped ek hatch. its got a GSR motor in it. but seems to be lacking in power. Take it all the way to 8k and around 6-7k it seems like i'm producing no power at all. It's got the stock DX wireharness just rewired for the v-tec, and has ac and power steering. supposedly act stage one clutch, 2.5 inch piping with cat and stock axleback exhaust. it also takes me forever to get to 8k rpm. i ran a 15.6 at the track. and my stock integra GSR ran a 15.3. dont' really know whats wrong. well get more info up later!

well its got a cat with 2.5 inch piping and stock axle back muffler. don't think it was converted to obd-1. but how do i know. and don't know if the ecu is chipped or not. i threw on my 98 GSR ecu from my teggie but that one it messed up i think because after driving for like 1.5 hours the check engine like came on then when i got home that night the car was idling funny...with a sputter.
