88gxl w/ US 87 turbo swap runs for 30 seconds and dies

heres my problem. my non turbo blew up on me about 2 years ago. A year later i decide to go turbo. my cars an 88 gxl. bought a complete swap from a 87 tii. i have the swap basically complete. Engine, tranny, complete jdm rear diff, etc. All emissions is removed and blocked off. also have innovate o2 wideband installed.

i couldn't get the turbo engine to run with the stock wiring harness, so i bout a microtech lt10, brand new. i recently put in a FD fuel pump. changed the fuel filter. im thinking i might also need a FPR.

microtech has a basic tii tune. as we are cranking the motor, it takes a couple tries to get her started.with a little help from the throttle. once started she idles at about 3k to 3.5k for about 10 to 15 seconds. slowly drops idle to about 1.5k. after about another 20 seconds or so. she turns off. i don't know what the problem could be. any suggestions would help out alot. thanks in advance.

i will be putting a Sard FPR in soon and will let you guys know more when its in.
