Default just installed new injector plugs .. now i have a weird problem

i just installed my dsm injector plugs like 2 days ago. i kept my stock plugs also b/c i'm runnin stock injectors right now.. so i have both plugs hooked up.

anyway, the car runs fine, but the problem is this: when i turn the key to start the car, the ignition doesnt kick in at the same time it used to. for instance, before i did this, when i would turn my key all the way .. the car would fire right up. now when i do it, there is like a second or 2 delay then it fires up. its almost liike my battery is dead for 2 seconds .. then the car startsup. any idea why this happens?

last nite i really notied it .. and i thought it was cuz i was low on gas, so i filled it up and it was workin good.. but now again this morning it does it again. i mean the car is fine .. but i just wonder why its doin this .. and if it should be or not. the only deduction i have made so far is that since htere are 2 injector plugs where there should be one, maybe the electrical current goes to one first ... then the other .. and this results in the delay.. i dunno .. what are your opinions?

Unless you shorted something out in the injector harness the two plugs shouldn't be an issue since only one set actually has current through them. I suspect you knocked something else loose in the wiring harness.
