So I just need some help to figure out if I should check out anything when I go home tomorrow night. Well to start with me and my roomate tuned my car the one night to 20psi and it seemed to pull pretty good well I got back to my house and as soon as I pulled in the car died. I tried to fire it up a few times and noticed I had a major fuel leak. The fuel return line blew off the regulator, good thing it didn't catch fire. I fixed that and then I left for home the next day. The tune seemed to be fine until about halfway home. It seemed to disappear, I couldn't get into boost and barely made it up hills. I sat on a back road and got the tune back on there and it was fine for about 10 minutes and then something happened again that I couldn't boost.

So now it is sitting at home, I was just there Saturday and found a boost leak at the TB and by the GM-MAF that I fixed, not I have no leaks but my dumb ass forgot to take my computer with me and now it won't start which I believe my ECU was reset when I moved my battery. I am going home tomorrow to see if I can just load my map and be good to go. But is there anything else that I should check if this doesn't fix it? I noticed my airflowperrev is about double what it should be but I think that was caused by the boost leak. Is it possible that my ECU is on its way out? I wish I had someone else with a 2g DSMLINK locally to test it but unfortunately I don't.

I tried to lean it out and richen it up a lot when I was at home before and that didn't seem to make a difference either way for some reason. I'm hoping that I can just load my map and it will be good to go but I'd like some advice on what else I should look at because I won't have a lot of time there and its 2 hours away so I don't get to go much. Thanks in advance guys. Mods are in my profile.

wait until the car is up to temp.
 
I can't log when the car is up to temp because it dies. It would start before I went to fix the boost leak and it would boost in neutral sometimes and then if I laid on it again it would act like a boost leak and sputter and then die.

Sorry I forgot to say this log was taken before I fixed that. My front O2 sensor was dead but I have replaced it and it is now cycling.
 
bumping is a no-no, you should know that
