Question s5 turbo engine with a micro tech setup

Any one, I just swappped a working s5 turbo engine with a micro tech setup in to a 1st gen gle-se car and I'm having a trailing firing issue. I have checked and rechecked the wiring and all looks correct. I'm using the same coils that were in the 2nd gen car the engine was pulled from. Please any help or direction would help.

same problem

This is driving me crazy I've now switched out the s5 crank angle sensor with an s4 crank angle sensor. I was told that this could be the possible problem. The car ran fine with the same setup in the 2nd gen car. It's got to be a wiring or micro tech setting problem. Can any one help me out or give me a number for me to call some one for help with this problem....

What computer is it?
Maybe your trailing coilpack/ignitor is damaged?

Cool no power after 3000 rpm

I finally got the car running and all plugs firing. It was a grounding issue with the coil pack. My Car is running but has no power after 3000 rpm. my setup is a S5 turbo 2 street ported with 3 inch exhaust. I live at a elevation of 5000 feet above sea level. I think its a mapping issue but would like some help.

when you say no power?
what do you mean?
does it rev out and just go like a **** box?
or does cut it out?

has it been tuned?
have you got a wideband to see what the problem is?
have you got the leads on the right way around?
