I did a swap from a stock timing advance capsule (bolted to the distributor) to a timing capsule modified by Brad at KC Saab. If the peg inside this capsule is not properly connected you will have crazy boost, backfiring and a cherry red turbo/manifold -- ask me how i know!!! Like DaveS says, check your timing (the capsule could be the prob, or perhaps the distributor wasn't tightened down all the way to the head?) and let us know what you find.
