It has to be somewhere in the ignition. Check your spark timing.

TPS readings are screwed.

Grab a voltometer and ground it to the Grn/Wht wire, put the other voltometer terminal to the Red/Blue wire, and make sure at idle the voltage for the TPS is at .5 volts and at WOT it's set at .45 volts.

That will fix your problem.
