Hey guys.. I just finished my turbo swap... and I started her up this morning and she idle'd and ran fine... and it revved great!!

BUT when I backed her out into the street and put it in first gear and started to engage the clutch the engine started cutting out and died...

What could be wrong with it? I checked all electrical connections that I could and I checked for spark and good fuel pressure and it's fine..

But what the hell could be wrong with it??

here are some pics

Well after she died, did it restart up? or it won't start now? You are getting fuel and spark...does it catch a little? No firing? We need more info, young man! Nice looking work by the way....

Well it idles fine and up to 2,000 RPM then it seems like it hits a wall..

I can restart it and everything but its very strange..

I also unplugged the TPS to see if it was bad .. but it still didnt run past 2,000 RPM with or without the TPS...

I didn't swap in a WHOLE new engine..

I just used my stock N47 head and block which was already in my car and I did a manifold swap... and with some 310cc injectors
