Assuming factory parts, wires should be around $250, coil around $100, distributor cap maybe $15-$20. Certainly under $400 for the parts.

$350 sounds steep for the "diagnosis," esp. considering he didn't seem to correctly diagnose anything.

$1300 for an ECU is outrageous. Call Programa in Florida, you can get a warrantied, rebuilt one for around $950 less than that. (Although I would not suspect the DME based on your symptoms).

From what you've been charged and quoted, what has been done and what you have been told, I personally wouldn't be too comfortable with that mechanic.
