Exclamation 87 turbo 2 problems

Hi everyone my name is tony i live on the island of guam.i recently bought my first rx7 3months ago. i had it for one month with no problems. then i installed a full racing beat exhaust, blow off valve. a fuel defenser and intake. it ran fine for about a month then it just died out on me. the next day i started it and it idle low when i turned on the a/c it died out and the only way i could start it was to hold in the gas. i took it to the shop and they said i wasnt geting any signal from my ecu to my idle control speed motor. they manualy ajusted the idle to 1300 so it wouldnt die out. i drove it like that then again it died out. and the only way i could start it was to push start it. i took it back to the shop they said it was flooding, and didnt know what was wrong. its been there for about two weeks and they still have no idea. i just purchesed another turbo two for parts. they also said it might be my tps or my fuel pump relay ut they have no idea. id apreciate any advice sense there are no rotary mech. on the island of guam. thank you also i thought it might be the cpu and i installed a new one with no luck

There are many posts on flooding. Do a search and you can spend all day reading about the problems.
First I would have them take a compression test to make certain the engine is up to factory minimum, then go from there. If the test proves good, then check the TPS and BAC valve (responsible for increasing idle under various loads) for proper operation.
