Ok so i didnt got the shady guy i know to get the car past emissions. I really didnt think i would need to take it there. I've never had any of the honda motors in any state of bomb prep fail emissions... so why would this one?
HC ppm: Limit= 172 Reading= 177
CO%: Limit= .69 Reading=2.00
that was all that the 15mph pull... the car passed on NO @ 15mph and passed everything at the 25mph mark... though the CO% @ 25mph passed at the limit. Any thoughts?

I thought all they did was attach something to the gas tank and go from there. They didn't put my car on a dyno when they did the emissions. I thought they stopped doing that.

if you car is new enough, they don't actually test it... it's a waste of their time. on our old piles, they sniff.

hrm, i did the research into all the emissions troubleshooting back when a car i had failed but of course i forget now how to diagnose
some things that do help :
seafoam it
change oil
check for EGR leaks and vacuum leaks.
id go in with some higher octane fuel too just incase you are pinging
is your car burning oil?
a new cat will almost definately fix it, but that costs $
its already running the highest grade i can put in it from the pump... there are other ways i guess.
from what i found on the interweb ... they say its running rich and has a bad spark to get these kinds of numbers... bascially i have too much unburned fuel with a combination of a bad spark.
SO... i'll drop new plugs in it... seafoam it... change the oil... and i might cheat with that can of "you will pass emissions" shit if i feel daring enough to add that shit to my car.
its running a stock ecu from a CRX Si with a JDM 1.6L DOHC ZC... it has a new distributor on it, header, and CAI with a dirty filter (that i will try to change before i go back... i just have to find one!)

For newer cars they plug into the OBDII sensor and look for fault codes. Two or more on most newer cars and you fail. Older cars, they still do the dyno test.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
seafoam prior to new plugs and oil, ive found seafoam can foul them a bit.
oh yeah... anyone want to come over tomorrow night or saturday morning and watch the bitch smoke?

Dirty air filter can cause an engine to run rich, usually as long as its not MAF-equipped.
Other than that, everything you said would possibly help. My guess after that would be a fuel pressure regulator, but thats kind of far fetched.

yeah i just pulled off the old K&N filter... fuck'n dirty! and the plugs dont look so hot... so i'm going to try to get my hands on a filter and some plugs... swap them in and let'r eat.

seriously, put the old plugs back in, seafoam that bitch, change the oil. put the new plugs in and try again. It is truly amazing stuff. I'd probably put some octane booster in too (it's snake oil to me, but sounds like you need help from a higher power).
And if you do seafoam, be sure to change the oil immediately. Think of all the nasty shit that gets loosened up getting into your oil...
Octane booster = junk.
Kaan's busted pile needs a new cat. Autozone also sells some stuff marked "guaranteed to pass" that you pour in the crankcase.

Or buy a couple gallons of race gas to pass the test?
