id switch to pmas if i was you. not saying that it will fix your problem but the c&l is junk.
did you remember to put the spout connector back in? if not, that will stop the timing from advancing.
do you know for a fact the pressure gauge is working. if the car runs fine when the fuel pressure is at 20psi then your gauge is bad because 20psi isnt enough pressure for the injectors to atomize the fuel correctly. with the fuel not being atomized right the motor would hardly run
