Fd won’t start

Hi I’m just looking to see if anyone could help me with a problem I have. After a long day of driving my fd didn’t want to start back up the fuel pump didn’t turn on as well as the starter didn’t engage. So after a couple of days of testing many things fuses,clutch switch, battery etc.. I decided to run a wire to the fuel pump and starter just to see if it would turn on which it has but once I connected to the ignition switch to run it straight through To the starter it allowed the car to turn on but now the cluster and rpms are not working properly and I have a terrible idle which runs super rich so tons of smoke and eventually shuts off also the rpms bounce when you turn the steering wheel. Only mod I did was a cat back few weeks ago besides that it’s 100% stock but I’m not sure where to go from here I’m not an expect mechanic so what should I do?? Thanks

I suggest you take it to a pro RX7 mechanic. IR Performance isn't too far from you https://www.irperformance.com/

Yep, IR is a great way to go. This sounds like something you could get in over your head on quickly. I have a feeling IR can get it sorted and running great in no time.
