Sounds like you are running too rich. What mods did you do? If it is stock then take it to the dealer if not then get it tuned..

Looks nice...

From the pics, I can't see an air intake temp sensor. Do you have one?

If you got rid of the emmisions but didn't delete the codes,you could be in a limp mode on the computer..Also I notice your running a 382,you really need to have the car tuned before you damage the motor.
