Default Help an Aussie out!... B20B into EK running rough

Hey everyone. I've finished my swap and have got all CEL's soughted. But it idles abit higher than it should, runs at a lower fuel pressure (about 35psi, where it should be over 41psi) and when I rev it abit, it blows abit of white smoke. I haven't had a chance to take it for a drive yet because I'm still waiting on a new braided clutch line. Does anyone have any idea what could be going on here? I'm still yet to check for vaccum leaks and plan on doing a compression test on the motor.

Its a JDM B20B with an OBD1 P75 and conversion harness. Motors only done 65xxxkms and a 12month warranty if put into another CR-V, but to give a warranty like that it should be in good condition.

Would be great to get some advice on what I could check or could be the rason for this! Thanks!

OK... done compression test. And is 190psi across all 4 cylinders. So eliminates any leaks in combustion chamber.

If I were to throw an adjustable fuel pressure reg and bump it up to its required pressure, could that help?

Or does it need to get driven abit to cleaned out?

I forgot to add the mods I've done which could have something to do with it...
