hers a little issue this motor is a j32a2 not a j35 plug numbers are different    the plug im using is 1 number off plugs i took out but google says lol its not the right plug ....should i re gap them smaller?? just dont understand why it misses at 3800 or so and sometimes on fast accell  .. guess could be a tank vent but its  not much different from my sand car thats a easy thing to change

Did you change the gap on the plugs?

 
The P1607 may cause issues on occasion, but you said the problem was still there with your friend's ecu as well. 

 
Do you have the ability to data log while you run it up the street?

Cool, now you have a path forward (Un-cool, someone else shot you in the foot..)

 
I thought of that but I thought I would run like chit throughout the entire power band... that's a weird one, good catch!

 
Nothing was loose had to use a 4ft piece of pipe to loosen bolt took oil pan and oil pump housing off resealed it all cam n crank seals new tensioner pulleys belt new damper spent 300 in parts not bad ., It’s back together and runs great just went for a drive pulls hard no issues.. Thanks everyone for your help !!!!
