car was smoking a bunch, replaced the head and hg, found out turbo was bad, got new turbo, replaced the tps (got angry and broke it). finally got everything put back together (timing is as close as i can get it since it won't idle under 1500). took it out to give it a drive around the block and it died half a block away and won't start again. anyone have any ideas?

have you checked the codes on it yet? Checked for vac/boost leaks? Set the TPS to spec? Also, check the AFM if you haven't yet. My old AFM checked out OK according to the TSRM, but in rainy weather the engine would sputter & try to die, engine light came on, until it warmed up. When I switched to the Lex AFM, switched electronics as well, no problems since.
