Can't boost ... wtf?

Can't boost ... wtf?
Finally got my car back, and I'm 80% sure the TPS is shot (as is the guy that built my car) however I want to confirm my thoughts with your opinions before I splurge and drop another 250 bucks I don't have.
This is on a fresh rebuild with new injectors, afm, and plugs.
Issues are as follows:
- Car runs fine under full/partial throttle as long as I run in vacuum. Once I go into positive vacuum/boost it runs too choppy and doesnt accelerate (seems like its flooding)
- Car idles at 1500, but there is a pretty massive streetport on the engine. However sometimes you'll hear the brppp-brppp-brpppp sound from the exhaust followed by a prolonged brppppppppppppppppp sound. Hmmmmm
- Car is getting around 6 MPG.
Temps and pressure look fine on the car.
