I just turbo charge my civic. At first it idle ok and then it later started to have a pause in the firing. We check the fuel, timing, injectors, distributor, spark plugs, compression, and the only thing left is wire harness that may have a short. What do you guys think.

It may be a vacuum leak. Check/replace all of them.

I did some more testing and cylinder #1 aint working for me. i disconnect the wire and the idle doesnt change and i cant go above 3,500-4 rpm. I checked the wire it has spark, changed the injector, and check the voltage on the injector wire 14volts. what else can i do?
