Re: Leaking caps, ECU ruined?

Chances are, if the car still runs, it will be fine once you replace them. Idle surge could be attributed to several other things, boosting out of control could be either an unhooked wastegate actuator or a cracked hose, and the richness could be either the car running normally (stock 1g's run pretty rich) or more likely a boost leak. This could also be the cause of your idle surge too, actually. Start by checking every hose you can see, then check them again.

...when you're done with that, do a boost leak test, and then check them again. Now start checking your coolant hoses if you replaced any vacum lines, they could be cracked too.
