i drive a 92 TSI automatic and i dont know how many of you know about them butt i hope theres someone out there ready to help me and here goes... i was installing my turbo timer a few days ago and i was about to connect the ACC wire to the ignition when a blew a fuse, i know it was dumb to do this with the battery on, anyway i went and bout a new female terminal fuse and the car was able to start again but here is where my problem comes to play. there is a power/economy botton in my car and that no longer works the car is slower then ever when i give it gas the rpms go up but the car barely moves until it has a good roll going, is it possible that i blew my ECU? i mean my check engine light is not on the engine runs great theres no smoke anywhere and no weird smells. At first i was speculating that there was a linkable fuse but i dont know and then i read a few threads on boost leak and plugs and weirs but i dont have any boost leak my gauge does not lie but i haven't been able to get new plugs/weirs because i dont have the money right now can someone plz help me
 
i don't know much about the power/econ switch but a distinct loss in power could always be a boost leak. build a tester and check it out.
 
i was just thinking do you think it could be my trans?
