Question couple of probs i need help on =)

well heres the problem ...every morning i go start my car is seems like my car is very weak no compression or something .....it would start and my vac on the boost gauge would read 10 or 11 maybe 12 but..if i let it sit there for a minute the vac will slowly go to 15 and stay ...and the car would idle perfect... then i drive to work let it idle for a little and turn it off ...5 minutes later i try to crank it ,it wont turn over unless i give it a tap of throttle ...so i say forget it let it sit untill i get off work and it fires up no prob (fulltime worker). but it does that low vac reading again and idle drops to about 500 and rise back up in less then a minute and stays at 900 idles perfect after that ..and tons of smoke comes out my exhaust everytime its a cold start it would burn LOL i kno but go away as it warms up ...yealp i kno im running a little rich but i have rtek 1.8 and they said not to run anything under 720 for primary and secondary
anyways this never happened untill i removed my emission fallowing rotary resurrection steps ..and im sure i did everything right ...the only thing i didnt do is the tb mod ....oh yea and also my aem wideband reads about 14. something on cold start ups and goes down to 11.2 and 10.9 itll jump between those two numbers 11's and 10.9 at idle ....

new plugs new wires new alt and have a redtop bat
coolant is new oil changed
and engine hasnt even seen 4k yet
hmm what would be the cause of this ...is it cause i removed emission and it got richer.? and wouldnt burn all the gas that is in the engine.? and would cause it to lose a bit of compression on start up and get hot starts when the engine is warm.? well im just getting opinions from you guys to see what you guys think, and what would be causeing it.....
