Urgent Please Help

I have an 89 rs 305 TBI. When I start it it idles really crappy until it warms up. When it warms up it runs okay If I baby the accelerator. When i try to give it more it backfires and tries to die. Somtimes and i mean sometimes it powers through that and goes like a bat out of hell. I have replaced the injectors and was wondering about it possibly being the IAC.

Could be the IAC but I would look first at the EGR system.

CTS or fuel pump are also culprits as well as the ignition system.
