More on the 16V "quest for fast"

[jdbubb at verizon.net (Dan Bubb)]

It may seem simplistic to say it, but seems to me it should be either fuel or spark.
Perhaps the easiest way to check fuel is to temporarily install the LM-1 WB-O2. You'd only need to supply power and stick the sensor up the tailpipe since you have no cat. That way you wouldn't have to tamper with the CIS-e and disturb it's NB-O2 input.
As far as the ignition, make sure it's getting the manifold vacuum signal, but other than that swapping boxes is about all you can do as far as I know.
