Default Turbo install...car shutting off

okay heres the deal....i have a 94 integra ls.....me and my mechanic rebuilt the engine (cleaned the pistons, new rings, waterpump etc.)...as we were dropping the motor we also installed a revhard turbo.....everythings hooked up right....my mechanic has same setup in the same car...for some reason
the car WILL start and idle, but as soon as you give it gas it will rev up then shut off.... we checked the fuel pump and also took the fmu out just too see
if that were the problem.....didnt work.....the only thing i can think of is the distributor???? could that be it....let me know what you guys think
any ideas?????????

this may sound crazy, but is the head gasket on right? I knew someone who did that and for some reason it did the same thing your car does. Weird...
