I have a 1989 chevy camaro RS 305 with the TBi. When excelerating slowly there is no problem; however, when put to full throtle the injectors seem to stop working, the engine studders, chokes out, back fires, the engine light comes on, the car doesnt shut off all together but it will some of the time. I've rebuilt the TBi, replaced the TPS, new fuel pump, fuel filter. If you have any advice I would greatly appreciate it.

Wow. You have done a lot already. Have you made sure the catalytic converter isn't plugging or something simple like that? Have you checked the intake itself for a vacuum leak?
