Slow Acceleration rough idle

this is my friends post he needs some help ---->98 gst 2.0 turbo

Today I was fixing a boost leak one of my Intercooler pipes came loose, I yank out all of my piping put new couplings on them and new nipples for the lines I have plugged off. I put the battery back in pop pop damn blew out the alternator fuse. Throw another one in pop pop same thing. Take a look around I had the battery switched around positive to negative anyways I fix it throw fuse in car starts up. Idles all jacked engines chocking like its not getting air Or fuel. I adjust the idle using the screw on the top of the throttle body its sounding better hop in for a drive and the car accelerates real slow wont rev past 2 grand and im flooring it. It doesnt buck it just wont move. I checked the rest of the engine fuses and dont see any burned out. My friend says I might have fried the ecu
 
i'm too drunk right now to think (you can imagine how long it took to type that), but in the morning i'll give you an answer. what are his mods, btw, so i have a place to look?
 
It sounds like the MAF is not getting a reading. Check to make sure the intake pipe has not come lose from anyconnections and the plug is securly connected to the MAF
 
we messed around wit the intake alittle yesterday, i am going to tell him to check the wires and stuff on. we will probably try it in a lil while. thnx for the input
