I agree it sounds like your timing is off.

Have you actually checked the crank to cam timing? Even if the belt looks good, it could've jumped. Use the timing marks on the crank and cam pulleys to verify that timing is correct.

Car needs 3 things to run, accurate fuel pressure and VOLUME (if the fuel pressure drops right off when the motors pulses injectors, thats an issue), TIMED spark (check the timing, not just spark), and compression.

cam to crank timing is fine, also took off valve cover and nothing bent or not moving right in there. also notice that if i leave the plug wires off it cranks fine, but when i put plug wires on and crank is when i notice the hard crank/puking sound the most. so whats next guys, and how to test it, cause im over my head.

You might have better luck on a general automotive form...
It's hard to tell what could be going on without actually being there. Maybe post a video?
