IP timing and valve timing will make a BIG difference in performance, so will boost pressure and ALDA setting.

Check the chain first, if stretched more than 8 degrees, replace. Set ALDA per the other posts on the forum (do a search), and I'd bet you will get similar performance if the turbo is in good shape.
