Default Car wont start...?

Well I've searched and read, but none really apply to what I have...I installed 450cc DSM's last week and the car started right up and ran great for about 15 mins...then it started to run rich...decided to install the greddy kit on my d16z6 and mess with the fuel management type of stuff after...finally finished installing everything, and now my car wont start...it cranks, but doesnt catch...everything else works...i can hear the pump pumping and the fuel injector relay works...all the lights work and everything else so i know my ECU isnt bad...anyone got any suggestions on what i should begin to do first? settings for my AFC? thanks

*hopefully another step closer to the Darkside

you're probably getting way too much fuel with those injectors and stock fuel pressure. prob gotta tune out the fuel. sorry i can't give you any settings, but i'm sure someone here knows. good luck man

also forgot to add that i think it is dumping too much fuel...the spark plugs were black....black as can be...no wear or tear on them, but just black...smelled like fuel too...if it is my oil pressure, which FPR would you guys recommend? i read something about the B&M's not being able to be adjusted down? And a lot of people recommend AEM? TIA

OK!...please dont laugh at me, but i figured it out...i forgot to plug the "B" harness in my p28...

so now the car starts, but it idles like crap...its running WAY to rich...i've been punching in settings for the afc from -30% all the way to -50%...whats the setting suppose to be at? more rich in the lower RPM's? and set it less rich as the RPM's climb? i'm more than sure its running rich...anyone have ideas on how to tune it? Maybe run a FPR to lessen the pressure?

gonna have to tune it with a o2 wideband.

try putting your settings all -40 across and maybe -35 in the higher rpms. You had the safc set for 6in 6out right?

not sure bout the 6in 6out...i'll try that today, soon as i fix this stupid oil leak on my line...yeah, felt real dumb after going through all that, then looked over at my ecu, and it wasnt plugged in

if i cant do anything by this weekend, then i'm going to take it to inline sometime next week and hopefully they can work some magic...i'll let you guys know about the settings and anything else...thanks
