Enthalpy Tuned ECU (Z32, 550cc)

Just got the chips two days ago (old ones were corrupted) Car starts, runs extremely rich (wideband showed idle 10:1 a/f) will idle rough when cold, once warmed up will not idle. The minute you take your foot off the gas, shuts off. Car runs real boggy/bucky lower rpms, once it clears the gas out higher rpms runs good.

Planning on going to florida sometime soon and meeting scott there and having them dyno/examine/fix car if it is the tune. Just doing this to see if there is a possiblitly of it being ANYTHING else.

Also, while car was in shop, removed ecu and hooked up aem ems and car ran perfect. Good idle.

Things I have checked
O-rings, not leaky.
Boost leaks - none.
CTS - Brand new
MAFS - Good
TPS - Good
Spark Plugs/coil packs - Good
All wiring on car was checked over, some redone (some wires were butt connected 2 or three times from the half-assed motor swap done before I got the car. All of it is single wires, shielded)
Everything else on the car is perfect.
At its rough idle stays around 1k, shows a vac of ~10-12.
Fuel pressure is dead on, have a defi gauge inside. Increases 1:1 for boost. Idle ~40psi

Please please help. I can barely drive the car, shuts off whenever I cant hit the gas. Its going to be expensive for me to get it down to florida (dont want to drive it, got to get a friend to help get a trailer to take it down there. Plus about 7-8hrs away.) Is there anything else it could be besides the tune? PS Ecu is good, was checked out at enthalpy while car was in shop.

Yah it looks like your ECU might be shot because based on all those things you have cHecked, everything looks fine. Did you check timing? Just thought I would throw you check timing? Just thought I would throw that out there. Secondly I might look at sticking the stock FPR and plug up the reference vacuum side so that pressure will always stay stable and not increase with boost.
