SOunds like vacuum leak. Is your vacuum to your AFR hooked to the plenum? Is you MAF calibrated for the injectors, do you have good conn w/ maf? What injector size did you use?

Could be a vacuum leak, a bad electrical connection, bad sensor like the IAC or TPS, or retarded timing.

The trick flow stage 2 is kind of a big cam for the stock computer, you might jus need to get it dyno tuned. But jus to avoid any stupid probs check for a vacuum leak just in case.
