Default B16a3 issues

i just swapped a b16a3 into my ek and it wont start
it cranks and cranks but wont start.
when the key is engaged you can hear the fuel turn on
but no fuel is sent to the injectors...
so i had a buddy come over and do a compression test..
Cylinders 2,3,and 4 read 200-210
while cylinder 1 read only '90' ...
he diagnosed the engine as blown
or could be pistons, rings, valves...

can someone help me out......need some expertise quick!

I'm not sure what you're asking. You want an engine with a dead cylinder to start and run like garbage?

If you have no compression in 1 it's time remove the engine and start over.

^x2 But do a leakdown test before you decide the whole engine is "blown" like you'r buddy said
