Default TPS? chugs only when warm? H22a

I have an H22a swapped del sol and ive hit a rough patch.

My TPS Sensor is off a little bit, i already knew that, but heres the issue.

The cars acting off (yes, i know my TPS will make it do this) But it seems to do it alot more when the motor gets warm. It idles fine, takes off fine, but when you get onto it it chugs really bad (i was told i was also shooting flames out of the exhaust) it also chugs when im driving normally, just not as violently.

Any ideas? i know the TPS is going to throw it off a bit, but im stumped as to why it does it when its warm.

Potential problem in closed loop? Does unplugging the primary O2 sensor eliminate the problem?

A bad O2 sensor doesn't always throw a code.

Calibrate the TPS ASAP. Then, you might want to look for an exhaust leak upstream or around the primary O2 sensor and also check the ignition timing with a timing gun.
