Default Problem still exists

Changed plugs with bpr7es's the problem is still there misfiring and everything. Took the advice from Jestr Tuning owner, and reversed the order of the wires. Still misfiring. I am now opening up my ecu to see if its fried.

Update coming.

Ok just opened up ecu. No eprom, oh well (thought perhaps the previous owner may have left me goodies). Now would this thing fucking reek? Cause i mean if i sniff hard i can kinda smell the metal. This blows. Any body willing to take a stab at this car?

AHHHH I FUCKING HATE THIS CAR!

Thanks

If the ecu has a funny smell to it then it is definitely bad. But it can still be bad and not stink. Are the caps leaking at all?

You did a boost leak test, correct?

No I did not do a boost leak test. Car seems to boost fine.

How can i do a boost leeak test with tools around the house? And why would a boost leak affect a misfireing problem? Really mostly the only time it starts misfiring is when im driving normally (not boosting)?

The car will still boost with a leak.
If it is mostly doing it at part throttle. I would start going through the sensors.
If you have a friend by you with a 2g have them come over. Then start swapping out sensors one at a time.
