J body supercharger swap HALP

hey guys, i cant seem to get much help over on the jbody.org site so im hoping i can here. i go ta 2005 cavalier ecotec 2.2. I have swapped on the cobalt ss supercharger setup and everythign is installed but the car wants to bog out n die when u put the pedal to the floor. it idles fine and i can get it up to speed if i LIGHTLY push the pedal but when i hit boost it wants to die. Now i have replaced all gaskets, s/c and intake gaskets along with a 2002 fuel rail. I have a high flow fuel pump comming but to me this sounds like it MIGHT be a TMAP sensor issue that came off the donor ss car. I kinda cleaned i with break clean prior to install :p....any suggestions?

Have you tuned the car? Are you attempting to tune via the 2.5bar method or the 1bar method? Not a lot of cavi guys on here but the tuning side of it is pretty simple.
