Alright heres the story, I tried posting about a week ago with the same problem but no one really responded.. Well, about 2 weeks ago i had a nasty oil leak so i dropped the turbo/downpipe and installed a new oil pan gasket (and a new mani gasket while i was at it). While my car was jacked, i decided to take out my A/C to free up some room, shed weight, and make it easier to drop and put turbo back up whenever i needed to. I took out all the lines but left the motor mount with the pulley on it in, for obvious reasons. I also took out the condensor? thing that holds enron to make the a/c cold (oh and if anyone plans on doing this, for future reference- watch out!! That enron is very much presurized and shot up in my face when i broke a line). Also while my car was up i decided to drop my stock exhaust, and made a custom 2.5 inch dump out pipe that exited from the drivers side front tire. This was super loud, but i only needed to do it untill this weekend- when i get the thermal 3inch on... Well after i did everything, i secured all the bolts etc.
The next day I pulled out my plug wires off the distributer and cranked the motor for a few seconds, then again- to prime the turbo...I tried starting up the car, but it was a little harder (hesitant) to start than usuall, but still turned over. I drove around town for a test drive and found that i was getting boost on my guauge, but i wasnt going anywhere!! It felt like my car was completley stock, or even slower. And another wierd thing, i know its not a wideband or anything, but my autometer a/f guauge kept reading lean, not matter what the throttle position was. I knew something was wrong, so i returned home. Later that night i though i would check to make sure i put the wires back on in right order- i thought i might have criss-crossed them and creating a missfire. But nope, they were all fine. I tried to start the motor, and it became even harder to start but still turned over. After letting the car idle for a little while, i turned it off to head inside for the night. The next day i tried starting my car and it wouldent... The rotor was turning, it was trying to start but just wouldent turn over. I do have an MSD SCI, and i checked the ground and power- all connected fine. So then i checked my fuses- main IG, coil, and even fuel pump-- all fine. I also checked the lines connecting my FMU- i thought there might of been a vacume leak- but the lines were all connected. I also have a walboro fuel pump- but havent checked that yet, it should be fine-- i put it in less than a month ago. What to do????

what kind of fuel management are you using? fmu, and walbro?

Yes, I have an FMU and a walboro 255lph in-tank fuel pump. Last night i checked the FMU lines for kinks etc. but i saw nothing... Im leading to believe there is a vacume leak somewhere in the fuel lines- but i cant see nothing!! Should i open up my tank and check my walboro pump for loose connections?? I do all my own installs..
Thanks!!

-- why don't you just get mommy and daddy to get it installed for you too ?

isn't it called freon?? anyways, double check to make sure you have the plugs on right, then check for spark, then check for fuel, then get back to us.

First of all, What the **** is your problem?!? Im 20 years old, i may still live with my parents but thats just cause i dont have enough $$ to move out yet. (Plus i blow it all on my car). I bought my car, pay for 100% of my mods..What the hell would posses you to say something like that? Why dont you shut your ******* mouth and go back to wackin off, and not critizing people for no god damn reason. I believe this is called "honda tech" for a reason- not for criticizing people.. I bet i know more about cars than you ever will.
