Car won't start looking for some help

I just got done doing a single turbo, intercooler, and downpipe.

I can't get the car to start with the pfc, it starts fine with the stock ECU but nothing with the pfc..

I really don't think the fuel pump is turning on, i'm going to check that right now but is there somone that could provide a base map for:

GT3574
FMIC
downpipe
550/850

thanks guys

checked the fuel pump, its getting voltage...

I don't know if my injectors are firing, no gas smell or anything...

When I go from the stock ECU to the PFC it will start and run for about 2 seconds...

anyone?

Pretty sure the PFC is dead...

Tried a friends PFC and it worked right away, tried his map on my PFC in his car and nothing happened...

Hi guys. I've got similar problem problem. My car won't start at PFC. It starts and works fine at stock ECU. But... my PFC is good (I tried it in friend's car and it started with no problems) (...) The fuel pump works, but at commander: injectors duty cycle, timing and rpm's are at 0 position (timimg -> -25 geg) and they are not changing when cranking. What can i check? What might be a problem? Sorry for my bad english (I live in Poland). I've pictured commander when showing sensors at key ACC position. Maybe it will help to find out my problem. Thanks, Peter

The AIRT which is BLOCKED and at 4.99 volts show that the Air Temp Sensor or its wiring is an open circuit (very bad).

This is causing the fuel to run very rich and should be flooding the engine.

It could be my second problem But, I report no flooding when i try to start car at PFC. Like i wrote in my first post: injectors are not working and there is no spark... When i put back stock ECU after minutes cranking with PFC plugged, car starts immediatelly... When it was flooded, I should have problems with start right after ECU change... I'll check my engine harness, this could be my main problem.
