That's the problem! Your DME ECM/engine is/are NOT stock.
Does the engine really have a turbo? Is so, another problem.
You're wasting time AND money by not focusing on all the mods.
Had a ECM sent in that had the same problem. Once the chip (junk)
was replaced, the engine ran fine. The turbo mods I've seen use
a MAP sensor too.

You also mention a CDI. Did you install and additional ignition system
with the stock ECM.
Yes, the engine has a turbo (1-bar). No MAP is used.

I put a ? behind the CDI as I wasn't sure if that is proper? The ignition box is stock along with the coil.
