    Probably a bad o2 sensor. Get a datalogger and check to see if its cycling normally.

    maybe one of your injectors is stuck open, change em out, you can get stock honda injectors for cheap....whenever you first start your car it will run the richest, due to the temp of the engine, pcm reads ect, as well as other things to determine fuel needs...
