Default Misfiring? Flooded?

I just installed my DSM 450CC injectors in my car. I had to cut and change the injector plugs/clips on my 97 EX OBD2 harness to fit the DSM 450s and I had to wire in a resistorbox. Now when i start the car it misfires pretty bad, and it smells horribly of gas until it stalls (unless i hold on the gas a little bit, which it becomes increasingly harder to keep it running).
I assume that it is flooded in fuel because of the size of the injectors? is this normal? can i fix it with a adjustable fpr? and how do i tune one of those?
