Default F20b swap need help please

Hey guys I have a 97prelude with a f20b swap that I just did an it was my first time so this is what's goin on I have a stock p28 ecu with a base map h22 chip now the car runs but it runs like crap It dumps to much fuel into the car an it gets into the motor oil witch is bad so i changed the oil like 3 times already !!when I give the car throttle it bogs down an wants to stall an it pops threw the intake an skips an wen it gets warmed up it's worse... I changed every sensor on the motor an re did the timimg all over an still nothing but when I had the h22 in there it ran fine I never had any problems with it so idk what to do I'm stumped I don't wanna give up also I changed the whole cabin an motor harness because the car use to be auto so I wanted every thing In it from a 5 speed motor but if any one can help please let me know thanks a lot

Get it running on the stock ecu first. Then if you want to tune it you can go that route. No major reason to use a chipped ecu on a stock motor.

You need to get that ECU tuned for that motor, the H22 is not the proper ECU to run a 2.0ltr motor.

Ya you won't. If you use the top of the H22 mani with the bottom of the F20 it'll be fine. That's what I did while I was waiting for my Skunk 2 mani to be delivered.

You can't run the PCB with a 2 wire IACV I don't believe.

If not the pcb then you need to have that p28 tuned, assuming it's been chipped.

I run a chipped P28 with a basemap from Phearable atm. I'm gonna get it dyno tuned by Church as soon as I install the intake manifold and throttle body. I'd spend the $40 and get a basemap chip from Phearable for your P28 and go from there.
