engine issues

S5 TII hbp.

I had a haltech e6x installed and everything was working. i switched to a haltech e8 and im having some issues. Before the car never smoked as much as it does out of the tailpipe. It is bellowing grayish smoke. The car will start but the engine shakes quite a bit, it wont rev and it dies if i have less than 30% throttle. I have not noticed it burning oil but i have not been able to have the car idle or drive so it has not had much time to burn oil. I compression tested the motor and it has great compression. I am getting spark from the coils. Both rotors are getting fuel.

What should i check next?

Is there a way to test a coil to make sure it is putting off a strong enough spark? (stock s5 coil)
