Default idles but no throttle response

hey, i have a crx that has a boosted b18c. i had a bottom end built and just swapped in short block...i have had many problems to get this thing started but it finally started. It starts and idles smooth but as soon as i give it any throttle the engine misses and there is no response. almost everything is the same as when it ran last fall so im kinda confused. i checked so many things...any ideas?

hey, im at the car right now...nothing is mixed up. when i did the swap i kept the map sensor attached to firewall and connected. the plug going to tps is only long enough to go there...im also throwing code14 aicv, it didnt throw that before i did the swap and i dont know what could be wrong with that??? i really dont wanna send my car to a tuner to figure my car out...that would hurt me! lol any other suggestions?
