Thats good news. I think you can order one from Servco for $1300. haha.
ebay will probably be your best bet for an un-molested ECU.

are you sure that the timing belt hasnt jumped?
coils, ecu, boost leaks, fuel pressure, fuel pressure regulator, spark plugs, checked compression, checked timing belt,
what is left?
try swaping knock sensor, cam pos sensor, and crank pos sensor
if that doesnt do it...you have a wiring problem
double check for boost/vacuum leaks
take a can of brake cleaner and spray it all over any hoses, couplers, fittings everywhere
see if the idle drops or if car dies
this is way out in left field, but i have seen weirder ****. check the brake booster, make sure you arent bleeding out boost.
just for fun, try bypassing the stock boost control solenoid and use just the manual and then try just the stock.
switch your BOV back to recirculate
also check your inlet pipe under the intake manifold, if it is cracked you will get strange MAF readings.
Try to take anything modded back to stock...like I said before, many problems with japanese cars are related to something that the owner has changed on the car. the wrx is a well engineered vehicle in stock form, other than the vagina fart transmission.

When you tried the new ECU, that was without the UTEC correct?
