Icon2 95 lx with no power under 3k

I'll start off with I've searched and googled many times many ways all to get nothing.

Its a 1995 lx auto accord with 150k on it. It idles fine, revs up fine but has no power under 3k rpms (as in takes 15-20 seconds to cross a street from a stand still). It doesn't really stutter or sound like it miss fires but once it clears 2700-3000 rpm it runs hard! I'll make a list as to what I've done to try and fix this. I did check compression, #1:100psi (and holds) #2-4:150psi.

Re-timed it (was off a tooth)
New plugs
New disty cap
New rotor
New plug wires
Cleaned the egr rail thingy that's under the fuel rail (helped quite a bit with low end but still super weak under 3k)
Pretty clean air filter
Had the cat tested at a exhaust shop, said it was just fine
Checked voltage and ohm's of each injector, all fine

The only thing out of the above that seemed to help at all was cleaning the egr thing. All of the vaccum lines with the egr are new, still not sure on when vaccum should be going through all the lines. The only things I can thing of to do now is fuel filter and seafoam it. Any ideas or input is welcome!! Just to put it out there, I'm definitely not new with Honda's and this is confusing me and my friends. Thanks in advance guys.

This is a big problem. There is a problem with this cylinder. You should do a leak down test to see what the problem is.
