why do you think it's running rich? Does black smoke come out of the tail pipe?

Fix the reason why it is running rich. Stock motors do not run rich unless something is wrong with them. Are you throwing a check engine light? Were all your sensors hooked up correctly during the swap?

he lives in another country, where b16s come stock.

like I said in the other thread, a tune-up will help

well you could start off with new spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor, probably spark plug wires as well.
