problems with ECU upgrade

New to tuning, but started full bore by buying a Speedparts stage 1 ECU for 97 900se turbo 64K mi. I know there a bunch of basic breathing mods (intake, exhaust, etc.)I should do first but . . .
Installed yesterday afternoon, car runs seemingly fine but CE light comes on. Could see and feel the extra boost but I did not drive too hard. Today I re-check/re-seat battery connections and ECU connection just to make sure all is well. CE light comes on again, so i figure i'll get a readout at autozone. Stop to gas along the way (premium fuel), after pulling out of the station, the car stalls as soon as rpm's drop to <1000 and is hard to start back up. So did not make it to autozone as i had to limp home constantly stalling and re-starting. Tried to start an hour later, same problem. Re-installed original ECU and everything is fine. Anybody have any thoughts or trouble shoot ideas? Install is real basic, so I don't think I did anything wrong. COuld ECU be bad? I plan on talking to Taliaferro where I bought it, but that will have to wait to monday or tuesday because of weekend.
