Wow it is kind of hard to figure out what you are saying at times. So you said you put the stock fuel pump back on and the car fired up?

So it looks like I made a very dumb mistake since I isolated it to all injectors not sending fuel. The fuel rail connector wasn't hooked up. I am so mad for such simple mistake I made. Thanks for everyone's input and help.

Didn't even think to look at that plug bc it is a silly mistake and I had that ruled out from the get go. I will say that the people from stillen did help out more then I thought they would from reading the forums. It ran for the time it was on, but now I have to swap the pump again and makesure everything still works. After I get everthing put back together I will post a video.

My money says the tune is just fine, and it's mechanical or incorrect wiring.

I won't say I told you so. No I won't.

Excellent!

The kit is installed and all is working. I still have to go for a longer then 10mi drive. After I drive for a bit longer I will post more information. This kit isn't hard to put on, you just have to patience with it and not to forget the simple stuff.

I had a misfire one after I finally got it running, but cleared up after I made some adjustments.

Congrats on the install! If you're not running a Wideband, I'd recommend you take it easy to break the charger in and strap it to a Dyno to check where your air / fuel ratios are and to make sure there's no detonation. Better safe then sorry for long-term reliability!

Congrats on being able to install it yourself, even with the hiccup. Let us know how it goes after it's tuned.
