Probably a bad case of detonation caused by switching the turbo without tuning after. What AFRs are you seeing? What are you using for tuning?

I'm guessing you just installed everything and drove away. You need something to tune with. You need a piggyback fuel controller or ECU reflashing software. You might damage your engine if you don't tune your engine for fuel and ignition timing. You may also need larger fuel injectors if your stock injectors are at maximum IDC.

ok, yes im learning all this stuff, the are no much people in here that know very much about lancer, so it is kind of hard. about the bov it is ok know. the thing is that with the first turbo it work fine. could it be other reason before the tune?, i can figure that my air filter is already in bad shape, or maybe be the fuel pump?, im running stock inyectors.

You need to tune your car. You need the right gauges to know how your engine is running. What are your air/fuel ratios from 2500rpm - 6000rpm? What is your fuel pressure at? How much ignition timing are you running? You need to answer these questions for yourself to know why your engine is running bad.

Sounds like you are running out of fuel. What kind of intercooler do you have?
