I have a friend out here with a 95 turbo Talon. It has been upgraded to front mount intercooler, and T3T4 turbo system. it is an auto...for most reasons...he cant really drive a stick that well. anyways. he took me for a spin. the guy who had it put a cams in it. from my stand point did a shitty job. He didnt put the right springs on and now his Valves leak and burns oil like a mofo. but here is the other BIG prob. When he gets to 7psi......it wont go any higher...the engine fucking acts like it hit a wall. IT acts like it is dumping air..but wate gate is fine......could it be fuel system??? when he is not on it and below 7psi it is a real smooth car. but when he floors it it doesnt want to go anywhere. and makes a funny noise under the car....
I know his valves are fucked a lil, but would it be the fuel system??? or losing compression?? oil is fine.

Well normally i would say with certianty it would be either your
1)Ignition components
2)Fuel components
3)boost leak.
But you went and fucked with the internals, now he could have a number of things wrong. I say just check for boost leak, and open the hood while in neutral and rev it to redline, see if you see anything unusual like pipes move or oil squirt out of the turbo housing.

alright..thankx for checkn with him. I'll let eric know. He bout the talon, and sold the civic. I need to work on that thing for him to get it squared up. I do think it is either the waste gate...or the fuel system.

Yeah dsmtuners.com is very informative and a good site. Sounds like possibly fuel cut, basically he is over running the stock MAF and it basically feels like your car just hit a brick wall doing 100 like you described.
