Default 01 gsr light spudder

Ok so I just picked up a 2001 gsr with 125k original everything. So I decided to put a test pipe and defouler on and a aem v2. I have a abs light on also and it says its the front passenger speed sensor. The previous owner said he replaced the knuckle on that side for some reason and didn't hook the speed sensor back up. I checked and it looked in place to me.

So here's the problem. When im cruising (10%-20% steady gas) I can feel this very light power lost for a quick 2-3 second. If I give it gas when I feel it, its fine. It feels like I just turned on the ac and it lost power (if you know what I mean when you run ac). So I thought it was leaning out. I just bought a new fuel filter and changed the plugs too. There is no check engine light on either. My filter was dirty so I bought a new one. No help with that.

So what im thinking is, it might be fuel starvation and leaning out at 10-20% gas. I was also thinking it might do something with my brakes like the abs or a sticking caliper? Can a sticking caliper do that? Idk what else I can do and im not new to the g3 integras... this is my 4th one and I never had this problem before. Let me know what you guys think

check the cap and rotor, when mine started going out I had little "gaps" in my power band also check that the TPS has no "dead sports". a compression test wouldn't hurt either

Compression test is good. 220 psi all across. How would I go about checking the rotor and cap? Im thinking about just buying some msd cap and rotor

Only go OEM Honda on ignition components. take the cap off inspect the posts and on the rotor inspect the contact edge on the wheel you're looking for chips/gashes on the posts and carbon build up/burning on the rotor.
