If your bumper is getting black, then yes you're running rich...

Vtec at 5500 rpms along with a bit leaner of a tune would yield you some power :-)
Your actual a/f values are probably richer then the sniffer log.

13.0:1 is fine, you could play around with the a/f ratios a bit to see what yields the best burn on your plugs & makes the best power.

A chipped ecu on neptune, ectune, crome, hondata along with some camgears & some tuning would help you make a bit of power.
