Well, it sure looks like an Si. /yourlife.
Do you think I need a new iat? Or just clean it or what?

After you fix the CEL codes, do a basic tune up (replace plugs, wires, distributor cap, rotor), if you are still not satisfied with the mileage.

me personally if i had a car that looked like an SI with out the motor i would be embarrassed every time i got smoked by a single cam DX.
As for your signature....
If it's converted to an Si minus the motor, what have you done? Sway bars, interior, strut bar, cluster, climate control....

Ya has bigger sways, Si interior (very comfortable), front strut bar, and aftermarket white gauge cluster, and the obvious body mods.
White aftermarket gauges aren't si gauges. 15in enkies aren't si wheels. A d series isn't an si engine. Is it painted MR EBP or FBP? Did you at least convert the entire front end from a 98 to 99-00? otherwise it just has the si interior and a strut bar. Not quite an Si. Trust me, I should know.

Tail lights, front bumper, grill, fog lights, wing, and soon to be red Honda badging and Si badging

Gotta love it when thread responses stick to the subject on the thread title!

also have you tuned it up lately? (cap, rotor, plugs, wires blah blah blah?)
clean it
don't please... don't. honestly i understand why you did it. i was being a dick. i agree the SI front end is way sexier then the other front ends of that generation but save honda owners the embarassment of a SOHC SI. please. the idea is good but claiming SI status and badging it are two different things. - bottom line if you pull up next to a real Si you are going to get spanked.
and those Si's aren't even that fast. haha i bet its a mock up FMIC. i only posted that to prove a point that no matter what front end is on your car it doesn't change what it is. i drive a 93 cx with a b16a and don't claim siR. idk maybe i am just weird.

don't spend $400 on an OEM o2. get the direct fit ones from the part stores. the generic ones have a tendancy to **** out and not perform as well.

I've done plugs, wires are pretty new, and I've cleaned out the fuel system/TB etc..
