Make sure your fuel pump is priming, if you had a issue with blowing ecus, you might've blown the new one.

Are you running a rom tune or anything?

It took me 6 months to get my KA-T running and it turned out to be a bad ecu that wouldn't prime the pump.

Does it crank? Im guessing it does since youre getting spark, fuel, and compression. if thats the case.

1.What kind of maf are you running and is it wired up correctly?

2.Check your dizzy, it can be of a couple gears/teeth.

Those are all I can think of to contribute at the moment. Take a look at those and respond. Hopefully we can help.

Make sure your fuels lines are not crossed !! I did that could not figure out why it would not start lol.
