Question s5 turbo swap to my 1st gen

Any one, I just swappped a working s5 turbo engine with a micro tech setup in to a 1st gen gle-se car and I'm have a trailing firing issue. I have checked and rechecked the wiring and all looks correct. I'm using the same coils that were in the 2nd gen car the engine was pulled from. Please any help or direction would help.

^S5 turbo will fit.

Stupid questions, but have you:

1. Checked the timing
2. Verified that the right coil is going to the right plug
