Default First time turbo owner... wat is there to know?

i think i might be picking up a turbo ls. I would like to know what there is to know about turbo and not messing anything up. The bottom end was just rebuilt and am in the process of breaking it in.

The car has OBD1 ecu CHIPPED TUNNED BY JAP
T04 50"TRIM AIR RESEARCH TURBINE
EBAY MANIFOLD
TIAL WASTEGATE
HKS BOV

When i step on the throttle like all the way the car seems to like bogg. Is that a fuel problem? What should i do to keep the turbo up to maintienece.

all info would be much appreciated.

thanx
chris
