Ok, not able to pull codes off the PK1 computer, but I saw oil on my fenders (hood not on right now) I look around and see I have a bad valve cover seal, and a bad cam seal. Guess I'll replace thiose things tomorrow and maybe take my head off and swapp the lower intake?

Been thinking on your problem. I assume you hook the braided ground cable from body to motor back up? Also have read that a another ground from battery ground to intake helps. Idea from turboford.net. Also I highly recommend the valve cover gasket from ford. This part # F57Z-6584-A It is the one with metal insert in the rubber. And it is reusable. I have done it. Also the intake gasket. # E59Z-9439-A. As far as lower I don't know if reusable or not. You can take the lower intake off without removing the head. Here is some more info. What to test if no codes. http://fordfuelinjection.com/?p=44 Also this link has how to test all the sensors. htttp://rothfam.com/svo/reference/sensor.pdf Why doesn't link work someone help and fix. I tried to do a cut and past wouldn't work so I just wrote it down and typed it in.
It's acting up because it really wants an IC to complete the look.
Right now without the intercooler the car screams to 14 PSI[&:][&:][&:]
hellion, I'm going to have to take the lower off of the engine so I can put the coolent temp sensor on it. Also the oil pressure sending unit doesn't work so I'll just buy a mechanical oil pressure gauge and save money, and problems.
Mg man, thanks for the link, but all the sensors are working properly, I just think I have either a bad seal or something bad inside the head causing a miss (that could be the reason I'm making 10 PSI in park, and only 6 in in vacuum)

If remember correct done compression test. Found this pinout on the older computers you may have it. http://www.gt350mustang.com/eecspecsturbo.htm I also assume you soldered all connection. Note pin 25 and 43 Also the other two wire "t" into a wire you don't cut. You done this correct just humor me. From what i read common mistake. Good luck keep us informed.
