Default NEED HELP 98 ex turbo

i have a 96 dx. i jus swapped a 98 ex motor in with a greddy turbo kit. the damm thing doesnt work. the car starts up fine it has a lil eratic idle but as soon as i touch the throttle it stalls out. im using a 94 ex ecu but i have tried a 96 ex ecu and it does the same thing. when the engine was out i changed the head gasket and timing belt. i cheked everything over i have no idea wats wrong. i cheked the engine codes and im getting a o2 sensor code and another one i dont know wat it is its coming up as code 2. that code is not in my book i have. im using a 96 ex o2 sensor so thats probally y im gettin that code but still the car should run w/o it. if any one could help i would really appricate it.

Check your timing belt timing. It sounds retarded.

Well check this out. Do any of you remember when I had that problem when I swapped that JDM D15B into the DX? Well anyway, it would start but it ran like crap and then would die if I pressed the gas, I checked everything you could think of. Finally we had it towed to a shop and one of the brand new spark plug wires was faulty. that is all it was. Also, check your firing order. Had I known more about testing electrical components Iwould have caught it.
