Default Gsr turbo built wont turn on

Wassup HT like title says i have a built gsr turbo in a eg hatch and its not starting anymore. To make a long story short just built the whole motor for boost and my turbo blew from getting fed to much oil and i took my car to another shop and had them replace the turbo with a turbonetics rebuilt and ha them basemap the car for 11 psi. I was driving on the highway and on 5th gear when i let go of the gas my car will shut off on the highway and when i stop the car it will idle under 1 and sometimes will idle fine. So im into almost an hour drive and the car starts to over heat and when i get to a complete stop the car shuts off completely and battery dies and all. I got a jump start and i try turning on the car again and the car was just cranking it didnt want to turn on. Can some1 help me please on what it can be and if any1 who is a goo street tuner and knows about there turbo cars in jersey city nj let me know asap

P.s car has maybe less then 200 miles

So you had a base map with 11 psi??? Do you have a cel light?

Definitely sounds like more than one problem to me...

Ugh..this is why I don't **** with tuning.

The dying while stopping kinda sounds like a vacuum issue..
Sounds like someone MAY have fumbled the tune..

But,start with the basics.when it won't start,does it:
Prime the fuel pump?
Have spark at the plugs?
Cel?

Just let us know everything you can.
