My advise at this point: stop before you kill your car. This is no b-series motor, the compression is higher amongst a few other things that greatly differ. A few things come to mind at this point: first off, you're letting the map sensor see boost obviously and that's why it's freaking out and pulling timing at 4k. This car has no fuel and timing maps for positive manifold pressure, thus the need for engine management. No exceptions. Secondly, unless you're running a boost controller of some sort, you're not running any 2-3 lbs of boost. Even if the turbo is internally wastegated, it's not a 2-3 lb spring, so you're running more boost than you think I'd guess.

Turboing this car doesn't allow for shortcuts or half-assing the setup unless you're cool with spending the money you should have spent on the right parts and engine management on a new motor.
