I just recently changed my timing belt now the car breaks up and bucks getting into boost, ive tried richening it up to see if that would help and didnt help, could someone point me in the right direction? maybe i overlooked something?

The first log is of how it runs now and the second is how it was running prior to changing the timing belt

Everything mechanical is setup exact. one thing i noticed was off is my omni map sensor doesnt read inline with my boost gauge like is was before
 
If u recently replace ## timing belt, and before that your car was fine I would make sure ## timing its on the money
 
Alright today i put in new sparkplugs and that seemed to help, i also let the car sit in a heated garage for a few hours then got it up to temp and all problems went away, then parked it outside for a few hours and went to drive home and it was doing it again. im guessing its fuel related because when i filled the tank up earlier it was going so slow, it took 30 minutes to fill the tank from empty to full. This is with e85 and its 0 degrees when i left the shop to drive home.
Anyone else have these issues with e85 when its freezing out?

It is wired in, and was wired when i wire tucked my car
