A bad intake leak would do that. Did you use any sealent on the gaskets?
Do a pressure test. I like the spray on copper coat. It is good for extremly high temps and there is not a lot of excess that will get in places it's not supposed to.
 
Yeah if you are using a new gasket you don't really need to use a sealer. I do anyway just to be safe. But when you are reusing gaskets they loose their ability to conform to the sealing surface so you need something to make up for it.
 
I had the same issue before, It turned out that the throttle cable wasnt on there right.
