High rpm Problem
My 88 turbo2 used to run perfect sometimes,then other times it would lose power in high rpms and backfire.but when i push the pedal a little bit it will rev all the way up but be slow.now it went from doing it half the time.it does it all the time.i replaced the fuel filter,got the timing and coils checked.i have perfect grounds.i am thinking maybe the FPR? or the Fuel filter on the fuel pump? please help! not that my rebuilt motor has only 5000 miles on it.

What condition are the catalytic converters in? How long has it been since the fuel pickup strainer in the fuel tank been in there? Make sure that that car is not running too lean. You'll kill that engine really quick.
