Default just finished my mpfi swap and....

my car bogs when i get it at full throttle. I just finished doing the dx to si dpfi/mpfi. Car runs great you cant just accelerate all the way because it boggs. You can put the pedal about 3/4 of the way down and its fine, only when you floor it, it boggs. HELP GUYS. I know plenty of you have already done it, help me out fast!!

Did you switch your two outside tps wires? IT maybe reading wrong.

You gotta do that man, good point! Not the middle wire, just the outer two - switch 'em around.

Are you kickin any codes. Also did you replace the intake manifold gasket and if you did did is seal up good you might be getting a bit of antifreeze into your cylinders. Check the tps thing as well it might need to be ajusted.

I already switch the two wires on the tps sensor. Possibly it could be the distibutor, the distributor's coil wasn't good so i put in a new coil. Would that still be the problem? Also i'll check on that manifold gasket, could be a possibility.
