Rx7 1989 gtu convert turbo

the problem with the car did not give more than 50 miles I only drove it once for 7 miles and it stopped losing power and losing battery, after that it did not want to start anymore, I put 93 gasoline which is the highest octane that is driven where I live, now it has a very well charged battery, I already checked the gasoline pressure and coils, spark plug wires and even spark plugs, after the incident, it happened because I used the premix thinking that was why it failed, obviously I did not exceed it I only used 4 caps from the same premix can and still nothing, if someone can advise me what could be the fault, I will greatly appreciate it, it has a water pump, radiator and its antifreeze, new temperature sensor, spark plugs and cables, I repeat if there is gasoline leakage.

welcome to the board.

i'm finding your post/narrative a little hard to follow.

you have an '89 GTU that is turbocharged. did you swap a T2 engine into it or did your turbocharge the 6 port engine?

you drove it 7 miles and it quit. what exactly happened?
