Installed Turbo Setup...Oil Pressure, Fuel Pressure, No Spark??
I just finished installing my new turbo setup, and it cranks but doesnt start. I am running an fmu and missing link, but I cant think of what could be causing this problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Done it...we have plenty of fuel, but we have zero spark. I've been checking ignition system components, but I am doubting a coincidence that an ignition component would fail at the same time that I install my turbo setup.

Thanks for the replies. I checked all of my grounds, I only removed one of them in the install (the one near the PS bracket) but I checked the rest anyway. I checked all parts in the distributor (coil, icm, etc..) and there was no failure. And I dont understand why the timing would be off because there were no adjustments made until the distributor was removed. It is probably something simple like a harness clip not all the way plugged in but I have tried to check everything about ten times. Oh well, I'm an entry-level tech at a local Acura dealer so I had it towed there so my foreman can show me up and make me feel dumb about my incompetance tomorrow . Thanks for the help though, its greatly appreciated.

I made sure the ground was tight. But I found what the problem was. Before I first posted, I took my ignition coil and igniter to autozone get tested. They said that they both tested good. I took it in to work today and they said that those were the problems. When they were replaced it fired right up. So...a big for autozone's testing abilities. Thank you guys for the posts also.
