Default cel w/no code......engine falls on its face. please help!!!!!

I am getting a random cel, when this happens the engine falls flat on its face. this will only last a second or two and then it drives fine again. when i stop to check the cel on my ecu there is no code. the car really isn't driveable, and sometimes it will stall. i really need help, i am suppose to be driving back to school (3hours) tomorrow.

Hondata?

Just read your "other" post- don't know much about zdyne ECU but it sounds like you are overboosting and going into limp. Do you have the MAP check valve? or does the Zdyne allow you to go up to 11 psi?

Oh, and it sounds like you fouled your plugs too.

i would guess the zdyne is very similar to hondata. both use the stock ecu modified in some way. maybe its a setting on the map sensor, but i have a 3 bar map sensor and the computer is tuned to run that. what does limp mode feel like? is it random or does it happen at a specific rpm everytime, because my situation is very random and it always occurs once the engine is up to temperature. thanks
