WOW, sorry bro. Best of luck with that situation. It was so bad, that I complained to Pratt & Whitney about them, and they stopped using DAS for their relocations.

I would call them up and get some answers. If it started up when it shipped then THEY F***ED with it. Good luck.

If you have the AEM hook up your laptop and verify that you are getting an RPM reading while cranking. You should see 200-300rpm while cranking. Please post your results.

If you can't hook up to the AEM you are shooting blind. It might be something simple, but you need to see what the AEM is seeing to troubleshoot. Loose wire, bad wire, pin connector, fuse etc etc.

Call AEM...i've heard of problems with the EMS systems sometimes "forgetting" the maps, usually happend after the car has sat for a few days. All data lost on the ecu, the "box" usually has to be sent back and they'll send a new one.....this dosent happen very often, but it does happen,

Did you take it to RRE? Mike and his guys should be able to get it going. I'm going up there tomorrow night, maybe I'll see it there.
Good Luck
