car wont idol after revving up

I have had a 1990 turbo for a couple of years now but it has never ran right. I took the turbo out with the exsaut manifold and replaced the manifold studs because they were striped out and put it all back together right (hopefully) The car starts allright but it dosent like to idol. once it warms up it does allright but if you rev it up at all it will drop down below 400 rpms and cut out. It also wont go above 20mph on the road. I took it to a shop to have it diagnosed and they said that all the electrical checks out but the thermastat was stuck closed. So i replaced it and it still does the same thing to me. The other problem is that the check engien light isnt on either. I like to think that i know something about imports but not allot and need to get a little kick in the right direction to get me started on this car. If you have any ideas or sugesstions please leave them it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
