sorry this is my first post, not sure if im putting it in the right place, but here goes.

I have a Ca18det in my s13, it was running great until i did the headgasket and a few other mods on the motor, when we started it up it ran like crap. took it to my mechanic he said its running on three cylinders, we checked the compression, it was good, we also checked the coils and spark plugs and those were fine as well. We figured it was the injector on cylinder 1 that was was bad, so i sent them out and had them rebuilt. All injectors were fixed and fine, but when i got them back into the car, it still ran on 3 cylinders!!! IDK what to do now!! i swapped wires to injectors and did everything i could think of, but it still didnt fix the problem!. Has anyone had a similar problem? or does anyone have any ideas as to what i could do now? Im so sick of this problem, and im about to give up.
