Default ZC CRX Swap dilemna

I put the dohc zc in my crx yesterday and everything seemed all right when I slowly drove it. The second I give it any gas it bogs down and almost dies. At first I was getting a code 5 for about 1 minute as the car idled roughly. Then it would settle out and throw a code 7. I checked the wiring and thats ok. The timing was fixed and still no progress. The car gets about 35 psi of gas and doesnt lose any pressure when I rev it. I can slowly rev it all the way to redline. IHE and fpr. not too much else except for the integra computer. PLease help. Thank You.

Did you check your MAP sensor and TPS?

Did you switch the green/white and yellow/white wires on the TPS harness?
