Hooray For Boobies!!!
Your post is hard to read (which is why no one responds), but I'll give it a shot.
First off, don't drive it like that, you could damage your motor.
Could be the 02 sensor, but hard to tell.
Search this site for the codes and what number they are. This will tell you why the Check Engine Light is on.
After that get rid of the Auto Meter Air/Fuel Ratio meter, it is crap and should not be used for tuning. Buy a Wide Band 02 sensor.
Also do you have any friends with rx's that may be able to help in your area?

take your car to a shop that will pull the code for you and then post it here. Even if they dont do it free it shouldnt cost much just to get the code.
youll probably answer your own question when you get the code unless its two seperate problems.
i find it a bit troubling that not only are you willing to drive around with the CEL on but youre sitting there trying to floor it.

posted this in your other thread too. the map sensor hose is a good suggestion. it's near the firewall on the driver's side.
that's a 13 code which is the manifold pressure sensor. i'll let those with more experience expound on what the problem could be. here's the link to the cel codes. that home page is also a good reference for most problems/mods/upgrades/how-to's.
