Default help,backfiring at idle

I posted this on cb7tuner.com, but i figure i would get faster responses here.
this is in a 93 accord ex, with an f22b dohc swap.

Guys, i'm starting to regret this swap.I have virtually no time to work on it, and when id do (sundays), i never figure it out.

When it warms up, it starts idling hella ruff and it will backfire and shut off.Its really annoing and disapointing.I played around with the screw on top of the throttle body, and now it idles from 950-1050 rpm.I thought that was my prob,since it was idling at 650 before, but it still does the same ****.When i rev it up to 3000, it run as smooth as ever.I also played around with the dizzy timing sionce i replaced it, but there is no way that that is my problem since i placed it in every possition there is and still backfires and stalls out.I cant use a timing gun cuz my xtd flywheel has no timing marks.I just cant figure this out.It also used to "pop" through the intake but it didnt do it today so far.What could cause this?Running to rich?I got a chipped p06 from mrx i think i should just get a p39 from luvmygen4 cuz mrx's might be to rich.

Also, it only does that when it warms up and is at idle.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i didnt drive the car while the firing order was fucked at all.Even if i wanted to, it would die as soon as i would turn the steering wheel.It was basicly running on two cylinder,and that doesnt sound goos i'll tell you taht!!!

Also, the firing order bfore i fixed it was:

24
13

It's the stupidest thing i've ever done and the thing that hurts even more is that my dad kept telling me its wrong but i was possitive that i got it right so now he keeps bringing it up.,lol.Its all cool though my ego got brused but its starting to heal.
