Car wont start hot

I finally got a timing gun and checked it on the supra. I warmed it up, and jumped the te1 and e1 terminals, and was Idling at 800 RPM. It read about 20 degrees BTDC, which is way out of spec. So I adjusted it to 10 BTDC like the book says, and now it runs even worse. 1000 to 3500 rpms is fine, but no full throttle and no power above 3500 RPM. If I do give it full throttle it missed really bad and wont even accelarate and above 3500 RPM it misses bad but will accelarate as long as I ease into full throttle. WTF is up this doesnt make any sense, I put it where it needs to be and it runs worse than when its out of spec. Its a JDM motor, would that make a difference??? Any ideas? Please help
