So did you replace the spark plug wires yet? Did you damage the O2 harness when you were installing the O2 housing? Have you checked for boost leaks? just wondering exactly what you have tried so far. Spark plug wires could be the culprit, might be running on 2 cylinders or something...
Might want to check the spark plugs too, just in case. good luck.
 
I got my money on boost leak now. My intake pipe came off yesteday and it had the exact symptoms you describe. Wouldn't make power at all and it would stall if I didnt rev it.

Just FYI that would be an exhaust leak, not a boost leak.
