Icon3 Crx b18a1

Ok I have a 88 crx dx with a b18a1 swap and everything if fine except that im getting a random code 43 and when im sitting at a dead stop at idle and I punch the gas and hold it the car bogs for a bit then it will catch like theres to much gas and not enough spark or somthing and it hesitates while driving with or without the code 43 and when I take off normal it holds back till about 3500 rpms then will haul azz and will also bog in every gear if I shift into it and punch it but only a few seconds I cant figure it out.
Things I have changes or done to maby help r new fuel pump,new fairly new injectors tested and all work perfect,new adjustable fpr set to 35psi,cleaned out the spark plug housings of oil new plugs,wires,rotor,igniter,tested coil works good,advanced timing to max,i have no catilacktick so I was told the o2 wouldnt effect anything so I have not changed it,fuel filter is 8 mths old,ecu seems to b working fine its a pr4 but idk it could b weak....please any advice would help tks

OMG work on your spelling. Reading that gave me a headache. Since you said you advanced the timing to max, your already causing problems. Your ECU is trying to retard the ignition. Advancing the timing theoretically causes higher rpm power while potentially cause low end problems. (I.E. bogging and sputtering). You need to rent a compression tester, get a timing light, and adjust them according to spec. Fuel pressure too. Don't just start adjusting things, you will do more harm than good. -Later, BR
