Annoying Problem

I posted a copy of this in here cause noone in the SR section seems to know.

FUEL PROBLEM? Running a s13 redtop in a s13 hatch 5 spd

Since I got it the motor has been running bad and I was wondering if these are the cause of some problems:

running the E5 ecu for a redtop?

to stop the motor from running like crap (misfiring and sputtering under acceleration) I semi-clamped the fuel return line after the fuel pressure regulator

using 300zx fuel filterwalboro 255lph supposedly being usedsohc MAFS, took one out of my other 240, also got the car with a cut wire grounding mafs, fixed it

when I unplug the mafs the car no longer misfiresi believe to be a bad o2 sensor

a sewing machine noise comming from under valve cover

smaller pipe comming from turbo to FMIC then the one going up into the intake (3" going up)

seems like the car needs to run richer than it is? Maybe the kid wired something wrong?

ignitor chip is just dangling from its harnesses, and not mounted

i set timing to 15, set tps to .45 at idle and it goes to 4.13 at WOT

maybe the plugs are gapped wrong?

in 1st and 2nd gear, boost will max at 11 and 3,4 and 5 will boost to 13?

I have spent endless days trying to conquer this problem, but I am stumped and getting frustrated! I would appreciate help or even pay someone to look at my sr setup who is familiar with them. I live on Long Island in NY. cell 631-875-1937

thank you for any help-Chris

if the car runs better without the maf, thats the problem, you probobly need a new one

found the problem, o2 sensor power wire unhooked (now fixed) and the ecu is fried.
