Hi have you checked al the intake hoses and hoses to and from the turbocharger? And it's also possible that the timing may be off has the timing belt been changed?
Here is what you need to try. When a car gets a lean signal from an O2 sensor it means there is more air than it should have. The general perception is that there is too little gas.
This means you have a leak in the intake gasket or one of the vacuum lines or vacuum solenoids. You can try spraying a water mist from a handheld spray bottle on the running egine. If the engine stalls or Rpm drops, you have found the leak.
Now I see that this is a Dual Turbo. Sometimes there is valving or "Gates" inside the turbo that regulate airflow. If the gate sticks, or carbons up, it will not shut down the Turbo and you will get too much airflow past the O2 sensor.
Having a backfire through the intake and exhaust indicates something is sticking and an engine valve is carbonned up and failing to close. You need to systematically test the items I have mentioned. The more difficult test would be a compression test to see if the valves are sealing.
There are two, whichever is on the head is what determines the mark on the pulley. I think one is a box, and you have 2 lines to line up with and the other is a triangle? and you have one mark to line up with. Hope this helps.
I have a 1991 Dodge Stealth RT Twin Turbo and had this exact same problem, it started off as a slight flutter, like i was loosing fuel pressure, then it soon after began completely shutting off like yours.. turns out I fixed it by replacing all 3 ignition coils. and now it runs like a charm.... give that a try. i got mine at auto-zone for around 60 dollars a piece, and there are 3 total.
