Default turbo issues

I recently installed a 15g kit on my 95cx w/ a z6 swap in it. It ran fine in Colorado, but in Kansas it is running terribly I have checked all of my wiring on the BB and it looks fine. At about 4k rpm it starts to like bog down like it is running out of gas but at idle you can smell that it is running rich. I have tried resetting the ECU and checked my wiring everything seems fine. All my pipes seem fine... I don't know wassup can someone help me please this is pissing me off.

alright guys let me clarify I did not upgrade the fuel system at all due to the fact that the 15g kit is supposed to be plug and play... I am going to try and rewire the blue box in again and see if that helps tommorow. What is confusing the shit out of me is why it ran perfect in Colorado but at lower altitude it is doing this.

The new 15G kits aren't plug-n-play with the stock fuel system. They come with RC330s. h:
