car is once again being a biotch. on the way back from springfield was was told that my car was throwing a flame out the tail on decel. today as i was driving the car would build boost but wouldn't accelerate at the rate it should. when i get off the gas the car sputters and sometime backfires (i would assume also shooting a flame). my stock boost guage is showing more boost that an i am running (7psi when i am at 0 on my real boost guage). the last time this happened it was my ECU. i tried swaping the MAF today and that did nothing. the only other ECU i have access to is already suspect. does anyone in the bloomington area have a 91+ 1G ECU that i can throw in and drive around the block to see if that is my problem? the ECU that is in there is a reman that may still be under warrenty. i want to make sure that it is bad before i call and see if i can send it out. if i can't send it out does anyone have an EPROM for sale?

pulled my ECU apart today... found out it was an eprom so that would have been good news two days ago. i found a small stop that could be a burn but it wasn't very dark and doesn't smell burnt.

ran the datalogger today. duty cycle was at 90% but higher than expected but the MAF was at 1600htz. not sure what normal is but any info would help.
