s14 Auto to 5 Speed Swap Question

Alright this is what i did:
S14 Tranny Swap - Electrical Connections

When I did this, I swapped out my automatic ECU for the Manual 97 ECU (WM) and did the above for my 5th gear sensor and neutral position switch.

Now this is what happened:
CEL came off, super happy because smog check is coming up, then i decide to say, "fuck it, i'll get an early smog test." I went on the freeway, put the car in 5th, it started to bog when I reached 3k. I got scared, exited the nearest exit, and tried to never pass 3k because I don't know what will happen but when I get near 3k it starts to bog. Now my CEL is on and I checked the code as P1447 which is suppose to be incorrect flow to or from the evaporative canister

Notes:
I've been scammed for a s13 VSS Vehicle Speed Sensor, so that's what I have. My car reads double the speed (eg 40 is 80)
I did not have the manual transmission harness, I hardwired it
I normally rev and change gears around 4k, but bogs only start to happen at 5th.
I'm going to check for loose wires tomorrow
My mom nagged me to go to a smog station cause my stuff is due in December (don't know), so I went to a smog station using the city streets. Passed the sniffer and passed visual
When I did first did the ecu swap and stuff, I ran my car on the street for a good 15 minutes. No CEL, until I bogged on the freeway in 5th gear at 3k.
