Default help.. after swap problems.. smoking, bogging

ok so i got everthing together and got the motor in the car!! it took about 5 hours total.. the only thing is that when i turned it on i saw a bunch and i mean lotsss of smoke coming out my muffler... motor was super quiet though..idle seemed fine.. but smoke like crazy... i turned it off and went over everything and noticed that the tps and plug that plugs into it from the harness wasnt connected.. so i plugged it in but it wasnt really connecting i guess it broke when i was putting the motor in.. so i held them two together and used a zip tie as a temp. fix.. turned the car back on and smoke was gone.. so i had it on for a good 15 mins. and after a while i could here like wistling noice from the tps and sure enough it started to smoke.. but then went away.. i drove the car for about 5 mins and it was driving fine.. then went to the store to put gas and about two blocks away it just started to bogg down like crazy in first gear.. it felt like a fuel cut or something.... it bogged in first then like after 5 seconds of boggin it finally picked up speed so i shift to second and same damn thing happpend.. my car pretty much limped home from the store.. anyone know whats going on? my friends have told me to pull out the injectors and clean them. ive been told to switch dizzys, and to switch throttle bodys cause of the tps.. but do yal have any insight

When i did my first swap i left out the TPS plug but didnt get a whole lot of smoke, it went away after like 5 seconds or so.
