vacuum line off the manifold shouldn't make a lot of difference.
Try removing the line from the apc solenoid (the one that goes to the turbo wastegate). If the engine spools up and hits the overboost switch, the turbo is ok (problem is with apc or something). Also, try sucking on the line to the distributor advance/retard can. If it doesn't hold vacuum it won't retard the timing reliably (or advance it!) and the apc may limit boost badly.
$650 for a running 87 isn't bad for a parts car.
I'd pay that for an 88+ just for the parts to convert my 87 auto to manual and the later brakes.
