its modded I just bought it a couple weeks ago here is what I know that it has
AEM Intake, Full DC exhaust, AEM adjustable CAM gears. Not sure if it has aftermarket cams (is there any way to tell by looking at them) also not sure if it is chipped. How can I check the fuel pressure and tps? does the ECU have a LED that blinks out the codes? Dist and plugs are dry. This is my first Lude I switched over from a civic so youe help is appreciated

Check the codes by sticking a bent paperclip in the little blue plug behind the radio. Do a search if you need more info on this and the TPS adjustment, there's tons of info already there.

As far as I know you have to have a fuel pressure gauge to check fuel pressure...

I was also going to suggest checking the inside of your dizzy. And like everyone else also stated, check to see if you're throwing any code(s).
