Default first time gsr turbo start up...problems

Heres my friends set up

Ebay T3 50ar. Turbo
SpoolinPerformance Stainless Steel Log Manifold
SPFAB 2.5" Downpipe
Tial 38mm Wastegate with 7psi spring
Custom 2.5" Coldside Piping and 2" Hotside Piping
Black HKS Blow Off Valve
480cc OsideTiger Bosch Injectors
Egay Intercooler
255 Walboro Fuel Pump
K&N Filter for Turbo
1 Step Colder NGK Spark Plugs (.32)
Blox Vacuum Manifold
HAMotorsports Chipped ECU with Custom Basemap and 0bd2 to 0bd1 coversion harnesses
Stock B18C1

After the install, we attempted to turn her on and we primed the turbo first by removing the fuel pump fuse and spark plug wires so we can build some oil pressure and get some oil in the turbo. After that we reconnected the wires and fuse and tried to start her up. She turned on perfectly fine but she didnt want to stay on and died after like 2 or 3 seconds. We tried three more times and the same thing happened each time.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: The car has no o2 sensor connected at all. the o2 bung on the downpipe is not plugged. I am planning on hooking up a wideband later on

sounds to me like the basemap may be to lean, hook up the wideband and check it out

try putting the stock ecu and stock injectors in and starting it, if you hhave a boost gauge you can always limp the car to the tuner if its not too far while monitoring your boost to make sure you dont go into it.

take it to the tuner.. if that basemap is setup for all your added parts it should work, but best thing you can do is get it to the tuner, even if its on a tow truck.
