check to see if your ECU is throwing any codes. it's probably your o2 sensor.

Well, first i would try a basic tune up, then the o2 sensor as suggested.

bad cat?...an O2 sensor would throw a code!

a non functioning o2 sensor would throw a code.
An o2 sensor in the middle of going bad, or not completely bad will not.
In my 89 prelude i had 2 o2 sensors and neither threw codes, and both of them were bad.
As soon as my car warmed up it would misfire until around 3k rpms then clear itself up and go normal.
After replacing both, everything was perfect again.

i`d say begin by checking the dizzy (rotor and cap) ... then coil, ignitor .. and all the rest
