Default Help please. Slow acceleration.

Ok I have recently done a turbo install with a t3/t4 turbo on a mini-me D15B7/Z6 head swap. I also have a stage 1 cam in it. I am getting spark, fuel, and the car runs, however, when accelerating, it really lags. And if you go wide open throttle it bogs out a little. Now, my first guess is the timing. But any suggestions would be helpful. I have adjusted the idle screw on the throttle body adjusted the throttle cable, which I do need a new one, and still, my idle is not where it's supposed to be and it's slow on acceleration. Please help me out. Thanks.

Boost leaks? Vacume leaks? That could be two of them or timing but not likely if its running good at idle. Does it ping at all? What size is your turbo? You could also have a slipping clutch. Is it tuned at all? We need a little more info.

Getting the same symptoms with my chipped ecu with basemap. Wasn't as bad before I got the ECU chipped. Any ideas?
