Default wtf car wont stay on

ok i just swapped in a d16z6 in my hatch and it was starting but when i revved it, it would shut off. now the car would start and then shut off in like 2 seconds and there were no cel's. tried 2 distributors and 2 other ecu's and same thing.

It sounds like maybe the fuel pump isn't getting sufficient pressure, however you engine has to be on for a few seconds to get a CEL. If it only runs for 3 seconds, there's a good chance it won't throw a code, even if there is one. Are your sensors mix-matched? IE: Map sensor and TPS sensor switched.
