scoobyecu missfire :o(
since fitting a scoobyecu i now have a terrible missfire
cant unfit the ecu and dont haev the resistor to put back in
BUT it only happens above 11psi
just fitted new coilpacks, MAF and Lambda
plugs have done about 10k and are PFR7Bs and look fine, gapped to 0.8mm
it is mapped for full decat
but im only half decat (still have p/d cat) will this affect it?

Have you checked the coilpacks for cracks? These tend to die after 6 or 7 years of use 
I've just replaced 2 on mine, and it's much better now
The ends of the old ones nearly dropped apart when I took the rubber boots off them.

close the gaps slightly.. you can just short the resistor with a piece of wire..
Fuel filter? Fuel Pump. Coil Packs. Plugs.. ign module, wouldnt suspect maf or lambda.
Where in the country are you?

coilpacks replaced this weekend with 4 new Bosch ones just for the sake of it.
will re-gap then next weekend
only miss fires above 11psi tho isnt that odd?
