After installing a new turbo, I was finally able to get my 931 to run without smoking. I put in new spark plugs and repaired some wiring for the O2 sensor but the car sounds a bit ill at idle and I have to slip the clutch horribly to get the car to take off. The turbo spools fine and everything; however take off is difficult and shaky, acceleration is present but not ideal... so I know I probably have broken rings in cylinder 3 and maybe in others but the car does not seem to smoke. Also, it tends to idle between 250 and 500 RMP so is there anything I could have done wrong installing the new turbo? Or any other ideas?

Check your spark plug leads to see if you crossed any.
