I would hugely appreciate any help on this issue. I'm supposed to have a track day on the 30th and am deperately trying to get this all fixed by then 
Thanks!

1. It is the unit under by the glove box, the one in the engine bay is the driver for the direct injection.
2. I am not sure about this. I believe I have seen some threads where they swapped the ECM into another car and swapped it back and it worked, but I would have to hunt that down.
Be sure to follow this guide if you do swap ECM's.
