Default bogging problem due to turbo

Hello there, i own a 98 civic dx coupe, everything stock. Also just bought td04 turbo kit. slapped it on yesterday and i drove it around, there was no problems at first but then now theres this bogging problem. whenever im in 2nd gear or any gear past that, i press down the gas pedal and it stalls for a good 3-4 seconds, then it starts to pull. Also idle seems to drop everytime, just this morning it dropped right above zero. CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME FIGURE OUT WHATS THE PROBLEM! im really new to this turbo kit thing.

hey just for reference, if you like to get on the gas un-tuned, your engine will be destroyed in no time.

Get it tuned ASAP
