Un plug the Vafc From the harness. Also rechck your wiring and double check what wires you spliced into. Sounds liker your car is getting way to much fuel. And if everything is set to 0, that could actully be hurting you in certain areas.

Are you sure it everything is initialized and also its set to a 4 cyl car? And of course re check your wiring...are you using a harnes or soldering the conection?

Steps to resolve your problem:
1. Unplug the harness.
2. Buy the plug and play harness
3. Take both parts to someone that knows what they are doing
4. Have car tuned correctly
5. Enjoy the drive
