I see virgin p28s all over the place for sale. You can also use a p72 which lets you run your secondaries.

JDM or USDM h22a? JDM or USDM p13? Is the motor and ecu OBD-1 or OBD-2? That '96 Accord was OBD-2, wasn't it? Did you use any conversion harnesses?

Need some more detailed info on what's happening, and what setup you're running...so we can better diagnose the problem.

check your ignition timing. The p13 ecu is the stock ECU, there is nothing wrong with it, as long as you installed everything right, it should run that motor without any problems at all.

JDM H22a and JDM ecu... motor is obd-1 and my accord is an obd 1 its a 95 but 96 model and yes i had to use a conversions harness... the only thing is it wont let me floor it... so i had to use my old f22 throttle body on my h22a block cause my h22 TB was screwed up... so now im thinking its my tps and map sensor that doesnt have a wire connect to one another to help regulate the air flow along with fuel...

It might be that F series throttle body you're using.

Switch to an h22a or h23a throttle body, and see if that fixes the problem. See if a friend will let you borrow theirs or something.

I have an h23a throttle body lying around, but a nozzle on the FITV was cracked off...

Yeah, it could definitely be timing. Double check ignition and cam timing.

ok i will check the timing but i dont think the TB could be the problem cause when i had my old H22 TB it had an extreme high idol at 3K rpm and when i put my f TB it dropped to 7/800 RPM so i doubt it may be that!!! but i will check and possibly but an 68 mm H TB upgrade compared to my 60 mm
