Default crx obd0 to 0bd1 misfiring no codes

I have recently finished up swapping a b16a2 into my crx, I got everything to run on obd0 stuff. Switched over to obd1 with a rywire harness and now the thing runs really really rough. Sounds like it is misfiring and has no power. I can get it to start but it wont even run long enough to warm up. No codes are being thrown, i used the original crx si harness and rywire jumper harness. Any help would be great

bumping so i dont fall off the map, car is at shop. got running on obd0 with a "miss" everything checks out. Changed it back over to obd1 and got a code 4. The distributor is a brand new reman unit, literally less than a week old. Everyone says to replace the distributor... which i have done. Any other ideas?

code 4 is gone wire was loose on dizzy. No codes car runs and idles. Turns out the intake cam was off 1 tooth. When driving it, it has a slight miss fire/back fire. Pulls hard but seems to break up and then want to go. IDK. Also found slight tear on timing belt...

well played with it a little and got the miss to go away slightly by turning the distributor a smidge. When i was testing I did a pull and now no rpm and all gauges in the cluster dont work.... looked at all the fuses none blown. Car still starts and runs no problems, no ecu light on when key is turned to acc, only alternator light comes on..

Check your plugs, check for spark, and check fuel pressure. Chances are you'll figure it out while doing the aforementioned checks.
