S5 T2 Mop/ecu ?

I cracked the ECU open tonight, but it "looks" ok.

The toshiba MOP driver is normal and the .1ohm resistor that goes along with it is ok, I assume. Its slightly browner in color than the other blue resistors, but there is one other resistor in a separate row the same color, so I'm not sure if thats the normal color they are supposed to be.

I've got another S5 ECU (NA) here as well that I'm going to crack open to compare though.

I'm a little stumped as really this is the only thing that makes sense, its either the MOP or the ECU. I'm retesting the MOP according to a more "strict" guildeline to see what it comes out as. I know its got to be something simple.

If need be, I'll keep digging until I find a "perfect" OMP and ECU though. A real solution would be to upgrade to an RTek 1.0, which ditches the LIMP mode and then run premix for the time being. At least then the car could be enjoyed....
