you'll need to post more info. First off what are you doing for engine management? what year car is it on? whos turbo kit did you use? Did you just piece one together yourself?

got a walbro 255 pump with 330cc injectors. a stock bpt manifold with a vj21 turbo and a intercooler from a mx6. we changed the fuel back to stock injectors with a stock pump and you can rev it a little bit but as soon as it pushes boost it stalls. but it runs better with stock fuel system. could it be not getting enough fuel now.
