I was getting spark and then I did not have spark in #1 and #4. I changed the coil pack and there is still no spark. I have recently had the electronic boost controller removed from the car as well and I do not know if that would have something to do with it. I know that the timing is correct. If it is caused by the electronic boost controller being removed, would anyone have a diagram with how the wires would be connected without the boost controller in place. I am not the one that installed the boost controller. Thank you for any help.

First of all, why you removed the boost controller? You need that because you have a turbo motor.
 
only 4 things that are gonna cause no spark on 1 and 4

-bad coil pack
-bad power transistor
-bad ecu
-bad wiring

what i would do is go to the local pick a part and grab a power transistor and try it out they are 100 bucks new at autozone a coil is 87 new at autozone.. if the transistor doesnt solve your issue start checking the wiring at the transistor. the solid black wire should be chasis ground the thick black with white stripe should have 12v power with the key on
 
Someone stole it out of the car. I would have never taken it out myself.

There are not many pick a parts where I live at. Is there any way to test the power transistor. I know that the wiring is correct.
