Solution
How does this ecu look? Having some issues with car and think it could be ecu. Swapped to original ecu and don't have same problem.

Lots of corrosion around some of those capacitors, I'd send it out to have the caps replaced and get it cleaned up.

Solution
There are 3 burnt transistors next to the ecu drivers.

At least there are 3 burnt spots on the board

I see some heavy corrosion but nothing burnt. C201 and C203 have been leaking for awhile now.

What sticks out for me is the question of a socket for the ECMLink circuit board. It looks way too close to the ECU PCB for there to be a socket under it but it's hard to tell from straight overhead.

Local computer guy soldered it in for me without a socket about a year ago. Was having trouble accelerating. You could stay out of boost and car would run. Felt like it would miss a little but if I went wot the injectors would just stop flowing. Thanks for looking at it. Waiting to hear from ecmlink as to what I should purchase to send it to them. Not sure if I need just ecu service or would it be socket and cap service.
