NJ Need help and advice Greddy Ultimate tuning and first startup in 3 years

Hello

Ive acquired a clean turbo 2 thats in great condition from a friend.

The car sat for 2-3 years and I'm reviving it.
I've been trying to get this car started the past few days.

Upgrades: Rebuilt 13b j-spec (not sure if ported)
Racing beat version 1 exhaust
Greddy FMIC/piping
Greddy profec boost controller
Greddy Emanage Ultimate


the car is relatively stock. I'm trying to get it started and the car cranks but doesn't turn over. Ive been troubleshooting, the Buzzer on the dash doesn't STFU after the key has been in the on position after 15-30 seconds. i tried push starting and no luck, only a small amount of smoke came out of the exhaust. and I'm wondering if it is maybe something to do with the Greddy Emanage. I have no experience what so ever with tuning but I've watched it before and i know how fragile it is to the engine. every parameter matters and has to be done correctly or pop goes the motor. Im wondering if anyone here has experience with this and would give me some advice and or help maybe helping me throughout the hoops of tuning this or looking at it or even getting the car to just start and idle AT LEAST. Ive turned it over by hand and by ignition and the engine will crank but will not try to start. Ive resorted to rx7club because this place is awesome and i love my rx7 so i want to actually get this thing started and start driving it. any advice is welcome, I'm not a noob to rx7's I just blew my motor on my FC 6port gt45 turbo build due to a waste gate failure, car was fully built minus the n/a crap. but now that i have a turbo 2 I'm looking to make this my daily driver for now and not blow up another motor lolol

Things I've looked over:

-Charged my battery to a full charge(6-24-15)
-Alarm system key FOB is working
-Checked fuses by eye, will get a tester soon.
-Checked for spark which I have but confused to which plug wires go where for each coil pack( maybe this is simply it)
-Replaced fuel filter with a new one, even though after testing the old one that worked good. (thought it would be good to have a new one anyway)(6-25-15)
-Checked all sensors were plugged in, the oil sensor has a connector next to it that is just alone, has a red/black wire going into it & the sensor on the oil pan has a black cover on it that is kind of loose, maybe I need a new one? Or its just a cover for the actual sensor and is fine?
-Why wouldn't I have air? Idk if that even makes sense lol
-I will do an oil change and coolant flush tomorrow (6-25-15)
-I don't know if maybe its the TPS needing to be adjusted?? haven't learned how to do that yet


The bottom line is, I need help tuning the Greddy ultimate E-manage, or getting this car to start up. It was running prior to me buying in 2011. Thank you.
