You are right mate. I am new to modding cars and I did not realise what the hell I was doing until it was too late.... 
Possibly repairable - yay !!! 
Yes, the ECU still works, injectors are driving, all else appears to be OK. Just that my boost is gone (again)........the Toymods god gives boost, and then he/she takes it away......(sigh)..
You must have been looking inside my ECU as that it where the burn path runs, from a resistor (1W 3R9J) to a transistor (E1A30 K38X). The burn path is about 15mm long. Can a track be soldered in to replace the copper path I have toasted ? What about replacing the resistor and checking the transistor to see if it still works OK ? And I have no idea how to get the right replacement parts.
I have worked out that this relay is designed to send 12v to the SC, and the circuit that I burned is the SMC ground signal in the ECU. It grounds when the ECU wants the SC to engage. Banging something like 4 amps into this circuit made more than raisin toast...
I have a multimeter but I know I cannot solder to save my life.
A photo or two would not be a problem.
I am willing to send the ECU postage paid back to anyone who believes they can fix it along with payment for your time, parts and effort. Would you be interested please Wilbo ?
Thanks,
Mitch.
Mechanic midget and electronic eee-diot.....
