My 2nd gen 3sgte swap into my 1994 celica st is complete. It was running great finally after receiving all the wrong parts for the clutch. Now it stalls once it warms up. I can keep it running by giving it gas. Even when driving it misfires every once in awhile and the rpms drop alot. Usually it misfires around 3000 rpms and it does it in all gears. Right before we stared having problems , we were messing around with vacuum lines for a boost gauge and we also hit the rev limiter to see where it was, Which is 7500(it thought it was 7300) Any thoughts?

here's a crappy site

It sounds like your MAF is backwards in your intake... I'm not sure if the 2nd gens had them, my 3rd gen didn't. but I had this same prob with my friends 98 tiburon. It will be in your intake pipe and if you look close it will have a arrow on it. This arrow needs to be pointing torward the intake filter... away from the engine. You also might want to have your timing checked it also sounds like you might of had a little slip in your distributor. You can set this your self but might risk damaging the engine. Your distibutor will be on your driver side of the engine. There should be a bolt that you can loosen that will allow your cap to be rotated about 20 degrees. If this doesn't work then you might also need a new distributor or just need to have your points cleaned.
