RX SE7EN is on a distinguished road
Finally started it. Was troubleshooting wiring for a long time because my spark and fuel injectors weren't firing. I had decided to move the switched 12V source for my ECU to the open slot on the top right corner of the fuse box by the clutch pedal.

All my wires were checking out ok, continuity everywhere it was needed and 12V sources and grounds were good. Just no signal going to anything. Checked my crank sensor, the wires and resistance were good.

Then I looked at my ECU while I was cranking and noticed the LED's turned off and it would disconnect from my computer while I cranked. So I determined it was loosing power when I went to start it. Then I remembered I had changed the switched power source. So I changed it back to where it was, which was just highjacked off of the stock fuse for the fuel pump. And bam, it fired right up. So must be the top right 12V port of the fuse box looses power when the key goes to the "Start" location.

It won't really idle yet, I've got to adjust the throttle body idle screw and the new larger injector settings. But it sounds pretty good. I also need to tighten down the turbo's vband flange.

Here's the video, please ignore my excited friend haha.
