Check everything on the intake side up to the throttle body what you are describing is similar to when you would be cleaning the throttle body and disconnect the intake before the MAF. Make sure it is not the MAF this is probibly it, what year car and what year motor. It's possible you have the wrong ecu or the MAF is wired wrong if you swapped it-it has to match the computer.Also there are a lot of vacuum lines on the motor to cause a vacuum leak a lot run behind the motor too.
