Bad idle no power

Ok I have sunk allot of money into this car and it still has a crappy idle and no power! This is a list of what I have replaced.injectors,all injector grommetts,battery,alternator,o2 sensor,plugs and wires,uim gasket,lim gasket,fuel filter,checked bac for operation with a battery heard a click when 12 volts applyed.new ground from engine and secondary injectors.Adjusted tps with two led system.The car wants to die when I turn on the lights and has no power just sputters even when not in gear or under load.wtf am I missing?

Vac leak, and perhaps AFM (air flow meter) is unplugged. And perhaps your Cats are clogged?
