'90 Turbo FC falls on face around 6k RPM
Hello everyone,
So some quick notes.I just got my car back from the shop for some upgrades. After said upgrades, I noticed the car is having some problems. Also I am not the most experienced mechanic, so try and bear with me.
What was upgraded:
Fuel Injectors: 2x 1000cc and 2x 850cc
Fuel Rail
Fuel Pump
Fuel Lines
Spark Plugs and wires
Exhaust - catless, downpipe and midpipe
Fuel Cut Defender
Engine was rebuilt before upgrades, no porting done. Now around the 6k rpm area, the engine just gives up, like there's a rev limiter. It happens every gear under load, neutral it's fine.
Any clues as to where I should start looking for problems? Coils perhaps?
I can provide pictures and additional info if needed as well.
This was also posted on the new member forums, but it seems that doesn't get much attention, haha

Honestly I couldn't tell you why the injectors. I took it to a shop to modernize it and that's what they went with.
It has stock ECU and stock turbo. I've seen the boost get up to 7 psi.
Fuel pressure is around 35 psi at idle.
