Default 93 civic with supercharged gsr

Help.
So I have a 93 civic cx with a supercharged gsr. After driving for a while the car starts to struggle moving when I press on the gas at low rpms. It starts to shake and semi back fires and then goes back to normal around 2500 rpms. I have a gsr Ecu and it’s not tuned or anything like that. What would be the issue?

Note: it’s a obd1 gsr, Jackson racing sc and a gsr ecu

So getting a tune will fix the issue completely?

Might want to do some reading on force induction.

If the car stumbles and spits up until about 2200-2500 rpm... it is likely the IACV is not functioning correctly. As for the tune, you need to post a picture of the engine bay to see how your JRSC is set up.

Do you have the boost-dependent fuel pressure regulator, and all the other stuff the JRSC kit originally came with? Or did you buy the car as-is, and are unsure?

I'd do what was first suggested - get Hondata, or some other freeware version and have it tuned properly.
