CV Boot and Torque Steer

So I replaced the right out cv boot on my 88' Celica ST and now it torque steers something aweful-What did I do wrong? Does the right axle bolt up in a special way to the inner 1/2 shaft? Help...please... Les Louisburg, N.C.

Does it only happen when on throttle?

Possible that the alignment has been knocked out slightly?

Did you remove the whole CV shaft?

On accell it pulls drastically to the left, on decell it goes to the right. I had it on the alignment machine and all settings are nuts on. I checked all the motor mounts and they aren't broken. When I replaced the right outer boot I removed only the right outer shft. Could it be that the right axle shaft is not attached to the center cv joint properly?
It also has new tires. I have pried with a 2"x4" and found no movement in the subframe or ball joints...???
