Default h2b swap ek, no CEL but limp mode

Hello honda tech,I have a h2b swap in my ek. My car had been running hot and sputtering and running bad in genral. Tunred out to be a improperly torqued head gasket. So I replaced it and car still runs terrible. Also threw a few codes 16-fuel injection system- and 22- vtec oil pressure switch because it was bypassed. Now I heard that code 22 will cause your car to go into limp mode, but I did the a4 -d6 bypass. No cel with a rev limit around 3.5k.(Bad ecu?) I reset the ecu and still does same thing. I got a new basemap and car runs similar but now won't even idle- starts up and then shuts off- unless I give some gas. I don't know if I have a bad ecu or whats going on. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.

Thanks for the help,timing was spot on, problem solved it was a bad ckp sensor in dizzy. Replaced dizzy and car started right up with no more limp mode.
