Default Giving it gas kills it.

The motor idles just fine. But when you floor it the car bogs/dies. Anyone have any ideas?

If i rev it up and down it will build rpm slowly. Just bogs when you keep the gas down.

I was getting a MAP Sensor code and I replaced that. I think it might be the TPS I never really thought of that. Do they usually throw a code when they go bad? I am using one off an integra, aernt they all the same?

But did you switch the connectors around?
What colors are the wires you have plugged into your map?

The plugs are completely different than each other. I thought that I had them switched to for a minute.

omg...
YES, go switch your map and tps connectors around. See what that does.
If nothing changes, we will have eliminated something.
