Generally you want to avoid starting any fuel injected vehicle with the accell all the way down unless you are trying to clear a flooded engine.

I'd check to see if the AFM is going.. Start with the fuel pump jumper, and then pull out the FSm and check per their instructions.
Try starting it with the fuel pump test connection jumpered, once.. For reference: That's the yellow, two prong'd connection that's on the passanger side strut tower, it will be in a black rubber shroud, right around (underneath) the boost sensor. IF you jumper that, and turn the car to "on", you'll hear fuel running through your fuel rails and such, try to start it then.
