CA18DET HELP! Bogging down during throttle

I have a s13 with a ca18det. It is hooked up to a safc with a rich safetune. It has trouble idling and driving. When too much throttle is added it will bog down and misfire until you take your foot off the gas. It will misfire while underlight throttle and idle as well. Also, while on the highway, it has trouble staying up to speed while going slightly uphill. It just seems like the engine runs out of steam. I know that it is not the engine running rich causing this problem becasue no matter how the safc is adjusted, it still runs the same even when leaning it out. Could it be the timing? How is timing adjusted on the ca18det? Someone told me to adjust the cam sensor. Sorry for the lack of knowledge on the engine but any help would be appriciated.
