Need help asap!!!

Installed a jdm style Buschur T-Back last not on a friends EVO. He calls me this morning and says the car stalled at a stop light and will not start. It has power, just won't start running.

I made sure the Hi-Flow cat was installed in the right direction.

The o2 sensor is in place.

It turns over and over, but acts like it's not getting any fuel.

I honestly can't think of what could have.

What would happen if the wires for the o2 sensor got cut?

No cel... I actually ended up having my car towed to the dealer for them to check it out tomorrow a.m. i'm wondering if it's an issue that an SAFC would resolve? A fellow Evo saw me and picked me up and drove me home and on the way home he mentioned that his old car had a fuel shut-off switch somewhere in the back that can (maybe?) be reset?

only thing it could be in my eyes is a ground, i know some cars if not most have chassie grounds to the exhaust.. check that. Its not a cell or anytihng the car will start and run with a cell, infactit has to to trouble shoot it on a machine.
