Sounds like your secondary injectors aren't right.

I'm guessing they aren't being activated properly then, perhaps an ECU problem.

sounds likely to be a ground problem, the ECU's main ground is under the throttle body on top of the engine, it's very important. Also check for a clogged catalytic convertor.
