I'll be back home in a few hours to work on it some more. Can't find any missing connections but I'm going to keep looking. Was thinking of pulling a plug and getting someone to crank the car to see if it's making spark. Bad idea? Going to check all the fuses first. GTR plugs come with the proper gap set already, right?

Is there a good way to check if the injectors are working?

Spark plug gap would not cause this non start condition, and they are gaped properly out of the box. I also emailed you on the harness....it is easy to forget to plug the injector harness to the main engine harness..double check that. You can pull the spark plugs to see if they are wet. This is the best/safest way to find out if the injectors are working.

That's the next thing I'm going to check. I'm almost positive I connected it but I'm going to take a look. I just pulled a plug and can't really tell if there was fuel in the cylinder.

Winner! Fuel rail harness was on but wasn't clicked in all the way! Reassembling now and going to give it another shot. Fingers crossed!

She fired right up! Holy crap that's a relief! Thanks everyone for the suggestions and another shout out to Sasha for going above and beyond with his customer service. He was trading emails with me at 1am last night helping me diagnose the problem.

Ok now to button her up again and check for any leaks.

Just took the car for a spin. Ho lee sheeet. This thing sounds incredible It's cold and wet out so as soon as I start making boost the tires just spin. Never broken the tires loose at 60 mph with partial throttle before lol. I do have a small exhaust leak at one of the v bands that I haven't been able to square away. Might need to just use some gasket maker and let it sit overnight.

Tomorrow should be better weather so I'll take some videos.

The rear v-band on the down pipe leaked on me the first time. Take everything "after" the v-band loose to remove the tension. Then tighten the v-band and snug up everything else. V-bands no like tension.

Congrats on the start and drive!

Yeah both rear v-bands are leaking. I loosened everything from the waste gates back to the y-pipe but just couldn't get them to line up flush. They're really close, but off just enough that they leak a little. I put some red rtv on them both and tightened everything down. I'll check it in the morning and see if that did the trick.

Tune is scheduled for Friday!!!
