Iv got this mk3 in my driveway it came to my house running but would only be able to rev to about 3000 rpm's and then it sounded like it was hitting a two step, the turbo's would build boost but the motor would fall on its face and stumble. The check engine light is on but when I bypass the t1 and e1 the check engine light just blinks a million times and it wont give a code ( blinks really fast and doesnt stop). Now when I checked the wiring going to the coils to make sure everything was plugged in the car doesnt start I havnt changed anything.

In the morning im going to rewire the coil packs I just wanted to see if anyone has had this happen to them and what it could be since im not 100% sure its the wiring for the coils thanks.

Save all the work.. code 0 (rapid blink) = blown cap on the ECU.

You're ecu is blown. Bring it to a tv repair shop to replace the caps on the circuit board or one of the local forum sponsors that offer ECU repair service. Costs under $100 to fix including shipping.

Blown ECU's are as common on the 1JZ as it is on DSMs.
