well, steve came over (yelloweye) and we put the car back together yest
made sure everything was happy and such installing and then fired her up today (after making sure the fuel pump relay was put back in the right spot that was an adventure unto itself) and she starts 
it idles like **** but it starts haha
we tried taking it around the block and i got engine power reduced (no flashing check engine which is good lol)
put it back in the driveway and are leaving the battery unplugged for a while to see if it fixes the codes it was throughing (was having a problem with the map/maf correlation and also this causes a random misfire)
so i called vince to see if we can work it out lol, but hoping it will at least run after i reset the battery for 30 min or so

not running it till vince is here again...it runs like ****
bounces from 500rpm-1500rpm unless you hold the throttle, then it throws a code for maf/map correlation (p0068) and then misfires, then engine power reduced....
