Default Detuned for bad gas? Non responsive loaf.

This car has sat for well over a year because I was busy and lazy and didnt feel like cleaning the ETM. So yesterday I actually cleaned it. Put car back together and it started and idled great. Drove down road and no boost. Feels like it wants to but doesnt. Maybe a little 1 second blast towards higher RPMs then back to NA. I took all piping back out and inspected and checked every connection and all vac lines I could see still same result. Does the ECU know it has crappy old gas and sense knock and hold it back without throwing any codes? I was gentle with the ETM while cleaning. It was not near as dirty as I expected.
