I never disconnected my battery during the installation, and I never modified my ECU. I am using the stock P72. The only thing i did was install my home made turbo kit ;D Oh, I dont know if this is bad or not, but I did have my oil pan off the car for 2 weeks. My internals were exposed, but never got wet or anything. But this doesnt have anything to do with a motor not cranking right?

um if over a two week period your botom end seized up but no it should not have anything to do with it. um you should chip your ecu.

did you knock off the little signal wire on the starter or blow any fuses when you were ------- around?

Check all your fuses. Check all electrical wires that you may have touched... then try jumping it.


By the way, you really should look into some kind of engine management (IE: Chipping your ECU. It's cheap and very reliable)

Thanks for all the helpful responses. I do have a question though. Someone said "oh so you have an FMU? cool!" I do not have an FMU or anything. Stock ECU. I havnt even seen how the car is gonna run after the installation. I have yet to start it. but here is my question... I am going to get 550cc injectors, but what else do I need for tuning? Do I need something like Hondata s200? or can I just get the car tuned with my 550cc injectors? what do you recommend for engine management/fuel management for tuning? I want the car to idle as smooth as it did stock, and to ride nice and smooth. What is perfect management for that, that is affordable? Thanks!!

so you were trying to start your car without the right size injectors, chipped ecu, or an fmu? this is a defenite no no and you should be happy it didnt turn over or you would be in a lot more hurt than you are currently. figure out the engine management before you do any real damage to your motor

chip your ecu. look at ------------- he can do it with a base map.

if you are trying to start with 550 injectors you will flood it in a second. no runing the car till you have your ecu chiped with a base map
