Default failed e-check need help

ok guys first my setup. 92 prelude with 95 h22a. aem intake, and 370cc injectors (the ones that came with the swap werent the right ones) and thats about it for the mods. and i am missing two bolts for my cat and down pipe so theres a little exhaust leak. heres my results

HC 402.1 supposed to be 127
CO 10.04 supposed to be .71
NO 83.4 (passed)

any help is appreciated and i am looking for a way around spending a shitload of money, my mechanic said the injectors are making me run rich causing the high CO and other than get the stock 345cc what can i do about it, he also said the exhaust leak may be screwing up the o2 sensor signal but i will fix that soon, thanks

You may be able to lower the fuel presure to lean it out.

A gas analyzer would be nice, or a wideband o2 sensor. Or you could just watch the voltage output of your o2 sensor.

sounds like its pig rich.

make sure the o2 sensor is properly working. put in a set of stock injectors and fix your exhaust leak so that the cat can work efficently in buring off the excess gasses.

also check and set your ignition timing..........

the timing is dead on and the reason for the 370 injectors is because the swap didnt come with the right injectors and they were cheaper than stock and figured that 370 was close enough to 345. someone had also suggested that i run a one step colder plug, you guys think that would help

you are running 10:1 air to fuel ratio
put the right injectors in there.
