engine missing

when i start it up and drive it, it seems ok. When i get on it though it starts to miss. i have a new bosch fuel pump,new fuel filter, new fuel regulator, new spark plugs. i replaced one of the spark plug wires because it was burnt but it still misses. i am not running any smog or cat on the car. so it couldnt be a clogged cat. what else would it be? the fuel pressure gauge at idle pin doesnt stay still at all either. specs of engine in sig
