Finishing up my project and I am at the finish line. I got the car started using a map that was already on the ecu (previous owner), it ran before when it was a factory s5 t2 setup. Problem is that I get it turned on which takes a second (like a lot of cranks)... But after that it idles alright but then sounds like it is backfiring every few seconds and then when I push the throttle it backfires even more like gunshots. LOL Can someone take a looks at the pictures and see if it all checks out, I looked at base maps in the sticky and it looks similar.
I'm just listing everything no idea what is or isn't relevant but if it helps
-LT9C with x4
-S4 T2 (small street port)
-S5 T2 Upper/Lower Intake manifold
-S5 T2 TB assembly (unmodified)
-No emission stuff
-Factory coils
-FMIC with 3" piping
-Gilmer Belt drive (I used the old pulley to time the car and then marked this belt drive to match the old timing marks)
-Holset hx40w turbo
-Tial MVS wastegate (1 bar)
-factory 550cc injectors (have a set of 1600cc for secondary just don't want to put it as the old tune had it for factory)
-Using the factory TPS.
-Factory S4 T2 fuel pump (I have a Walbro 255 ready to go in but yeah the ecu was set for factory)
-also I have the fuel pump hooked up from the microtech I followed the diagram(before it was hooked up through the factory car harness)
-Koyo Radiator
-Mercury Villager E Fan (hooked up via relay to turn on with the microtech)
side note: ignore the gauges in the software pics. I didn't have the car running when I was taking screenshots just had the ignition on so I could access the ecu and I have a separate Wideband not using the factory o2 sensor.

My timing was spot on. I put the factory pulley on and manually turned it and set the cas. Then I put the belt drive on afterwards. My air temp sensor is connected, anything else I need to do with it? I recalibrated the tps and it is correct now.
