Are you *sure* you got all the leaks? A few culprits are often overlooked.
There's a small plate on the underside of the intake manifold, I think where EGR fed in on cars that have it?
The brass fittings in the throttle body often come unglued, and no one ever notices until boost pops them out.
I assume you checked out the throttle body o-ring carefully when you had the throttle body off?
I think all unplugging the AMM did for you was throw it into limp-home mode.
Of course the AMM *wiring* could be suspect if you're sure the sensor isn't.
Does it do this hot and cold? if it does it cold, the O2 is squarely out of the question.
