Ground kit/starting problems

Car won't start after installing Hyper Ground kit. I double checked all connections, should be much better. Instead, car turns over, all eletrical accessories function, but car will not start.

It acts like it wants too, but doesn't fire off.

Checked every fuse in the engine bay, all were intact. Car almost sounds like it has a vacuum issue but not sure about that. I didn't touch anything with the induction. It sounds like its close to turning over but just doesn't get there. Is it possible the the common grounding is causing that issue? I am going to take the kit off tonight and see what happens. BTW, this is my Girlfriend's car. When I put Hyperground kit on my Evo, I had no problems whatsoever. Kinda strange. I didn't do anything different. I've had them side by side for hours and I did it exactly the same.

Chasis ground problem on her car? Difference between 04 and 05? (Her's is the 05)
