if you mean that when the turbo kicks in the engine is dying.... which I think you do..
sounds like you have either a leak or an open pipe on the carb.. check the balance pipe that goes from the left of the carb to the front top of the carb
do a search on this site for boost problems

Sounds like a fueling problem.

Check the fuel pressure is set to 4psi at idle.

Also check that the plenum gasket has all the holes in it. Some don't and then the float chamber doesn't pressurise.

And make sure your fuel pressure reg is connected correctly!

You haven't given much information, so read a few old posts so you get an idea what also to check. Then post back up your findings.

Check that the float chamber venting pipe is blocked.

Everyone knows that instructions only have to be read if the thing doesn't work....
