You need to check your fuel pressure. You are insanely lean almost everywhere. In some spots your closed loop fuel trims are trying to add 60% more fuel. Even with a bad fuel supply, I can't imagine what your tune looks like, for the fuel trims to be so all over the place. Post it up if you don't mind.

The tune has been fine for the past couple months. I’ve had no problems with that. it only started on my way back from a car show yesterday. Yesterday my idol is fine. It doesn’t stall it just backfires like crazy when I’m driving and underload. i’ll check my fuel pressure and let you know.

Have you checked for vacuum leaks? Backfire or sputtering under load instantly makes me think something like intake gaskets... Do you have more than a code reader? I'd plug in a scanner and look at the live data. From MAF, crank, cam etc sensors and all. Just to make sure their parameters aren't in red. Make sure you have proper fuel# also. Might be worth checking plugs to see if any hairline cracks in the porcelain also.

Replace your Fuel Filter.
When was the last replacement of that filter?
