No power!!!!!

I have a 87 TII. Through the first two gears car revs fine (WOT) but once I shift into third car will not accelerate pas 3300rpm. I think the secondary injectors arent opening?

The turbo boosts, but not like it should ( no noticible power change like a turbo car should have). I think this is just because the secondary injectors arent opening? Could this be it?

Thanks!

Sounds exactly like it. Make sure your cat(s) arent clogged either, its a problem with many older cars. In the near future Im going to be selling a bonez highflo cat and a racing beat cat, so if you need one pm me. Ill part with either for a cheap price.

Secondary injectors and/or secondary throttle blades. Also, replace your fuel filter. It may just be clogged.

I was having some similar problems. I was getting no boost and my car was slow through third and up. I hollowed out my high flow cat and I was back to spooling.
