Yes, you have a computer. It's under the LR fender and you can see it 
thru the louvers. You get to it from the inside of the car, where 
there's an access plate. There's nothing about this problem that 
would make me want to open that up, unless you had the Bosch tester 
which would hook to the FI wiring harness to check all the OTHER 
components.

Anything's possible, but a bad computer is VERY unlikely, especially 
since all 4 of your cylinders seem to be okay at high speed.

If you can't figure it out, would you want to make another trip up to 
Madison? We could probably fix it here together in very little time. 
All we would need would be a few hours of decent weather.
