Getting air and fuel,no spark?

I barely drove half a mile last night and my car shuts off ,after cranking it over and checking the plug wires are all connected and hearing the fuel pump working (getting 40 psi of pressure),checking for fuses in the dark to no avail we tow it home.
This morning I check the fuses all seen to be ok ,the car cranks over ok we have fuel pressure but no spark,I notice the twinpower is not geting power,no light on,so their is my problem? could it be the unit itself or more likely something related? also my commander is not coming on as it normally does.

Yes it is a bit different...I curse my harness
I dont know if it is a ignition issue that the Hks twinpower is out and not giving a spark to fire the motor and the commander does not come on,possibly related?
I suck at electrical problems but there are people here mutch smarter that could point me in the right direction.

Im not much smarter but i would say you have one of the power feed wires dead. Its affecting pfc and the power signal to your twin power. find a test light and go to the wireing diagrams and find out. Ill bet they are not the only things not working!

I cant speak to the commander problem but one time my TwinPower stopped working and I redid the ground and havent had a problem since.

I feel your pain, I sat messing w/my car for a hour trying to get it to start before I finally as a last resort took the TwinPower out of the loop.

30 amp egi fuse was the problem,I cant beleive I did not spot it,oh well.
I put in a replacement it got me a 1000 yards and it blew again,there was a very tiny amount of smoke coming from fuse box by the drivers side shock tower, I replaced the 15a air conditioning fuse (I have removed the air cond) the car starts and I,m releived it not the PFC thats bad.So where to look first?

Update. I pulled the uim off,and looked for some wires that where shorting out and there was a fray in one going to one set of injectors.I spent a few hours going over all the wires and cleaned up a few issues,fired her up and so far so good.
