It must have been blue smoke, because I figured out the smoking: Oil seperator return pipe on the oil pan was not plugged after I took the system out, therefor under boost it shot oil out and burned it off on the exhaust.

The power issue was exagerrated. I'm at 10 now, and I last drove the car on 16 PSI. Must be that I got used to the increased boost. I believe either my plugs, wires, and/or injector is causing the driveability. I plan on replacing the plugs with 7 series, since I plan on going back to 16 after I figure out the deal on the injector.
