Default holy ---- WTF is wrong with my car?!?!

alright some background, i was on the dyno 2 weekends ago and ran into problems and ended up replacing my coil . thats really the only problem ive ever had with this car since i bought it from the orginal owner.
drove it home 250 miles and drove it around town everyday like i always have and havent had a problem. so im going to leave my parking spot at my apartment and pull up to my garage to talk to my rooomate and it dies as i stop. turn it over and it will not start. if i feather the gas and keep it running it will run but wont go above 3 grandish and just surges all over the place.

no smoke when its running like its burning oil and it smells pig rich. like fuel dripping out of the DP almost.
i checked my timing belt and it looked like it was a cog or two off? i adjusted it and it still will not start.

plugs look alright other than being covered in fuel but i cleaned and dried them off and theres no difference.

i have spark on all 4 cylinders and im pretty sure theres power to all the injectors.

i cannot figure this out and i need my car! please give me any kind of ideas!

The ECU reverts back to the stock bin. Big duel injectors with stock pulse widths = ---- loads of fuel.

replaced the coil last night and it still runs like ----? i tried running it on a stock p28 to see if it would run any better and it almost seemed like it was hitting on all 4 cylinders now? so im wondering if i didnt somehow lose my tune thats on my chip?? it ran better with a stock p28 and 450 than it did with my chipped ecu? they are the same ecu btw i just pulled j1
