Default *car runs weird, dies, and has no spark?????* (please HELP)

last week car I parked my car at home, next morning try and start it and it idled ok for 10 minutes then it bounced up and down, so I turned it off and the next morning it wouldn't start. Has no spark so I changed plugs, rotor, and igniter, no luck THE CAR WILL HAVE SPARK when I turn the key and the turbo timer goes on or off ???? when the car was running when I turned the car to acc position it jumped to 2k then returned to normal idle I tried starting the car with the turbo timner unplugged but no luck now I am getting a CEL 12 egr but I heard that 96 gsrs dont have them please help really need to get the car running again. I am running the AEM EMS ecu.

I would suggest to take the vehicle to someone who is well versed with the AEM system. Sounds like your turbo timer is messing with it, but not sure.
