Exclamation Help!!! She turns but doesn't fire up!!!

Hey guys, first post I hope you guys can help. I'm new to the FD family but have read many of your posts in hopes of passing on the smarts. I currently own a 94' edition with the following mods: Apex'i ecu and commander, full exhaust with no plug, and a greddy type-s bov. About a month ago as I pulled off the highway my car started to miss. I was able to get home and in the morning I pulled the plugs for inspection. The leads were fouled up bad!! so I replaced all four. Started her and got the same result, missing and a loss of power. I teach so have little time to play with my toys so she sat for a week. The following Saturday I tried starting her but all she does is spin but does not fire up!!! Are there any trouble codes that I can look for? If so how can I check? If I can start her then I can drive her to the shop. Any help greatly appreciated!!! Many thanks

check your compression, how were you driving the car before this happened? i dont want to scare you but it seems like your apex seals are damaged.

Check to see if you have a spark first, then fuel. If you are then do a compression test.
