Get a hand held diagnostic device and check out the error code. If you don't have one of those then it will have to be either a dealer or subaru speicalist. You can't reset the ECU either or clear codes without the right equipment.

My guess is over revving it may well have caused cam position sensor to scream help, misfire codes, etc etc... You say uppipe sensor removed....which one exactly?? (EGT sensor??)

As above........ likely camshaft position sensor error which should go out after about 5 starts. I'd wait to see if it goes out first
