OK,

Long story short, I get spark with CAS out of engine turning by hand but none when actually trying to start it. I get no errors, orange light flashes on MT.

did you just install microtech? check the ground for the shielding on the CAS. also are you using new plugs? are you getting spark at the plugs with CAS in the engine while holding the spark plug wire near the plugs?

Connect to the Microtech with a laptop and check if the ECU is seeing RPM while cranking, should be 250RPM or so.
