after replacing my motor, it shakes and has a hard time revving.

i replaced the motor on my fd about 2 months ago, i also did a T-78 singe and all the other mods, including a PFC. when i start thew car, it shakes and won't idle till it warms up, after that, it holds an idle, but won't rev, when i give it gas, it studders and revs very rough(like on one rotor) but im getting spark and fuel on both rotors.. my Q is, could i have installed something wrong? does anyone know what it might be?
thanks

Flatbed the car to dave at kdr (610 614 1214). The tow truck bill along with what he charges you to diagnose the problem will be much cheaper than another rebuild.
