Evo not starting

Was driving the car normal beings it's a brand new build, when the car decided to just shut off. Pumps weren't working. Check all fuses and relays noting wrong.
Got it towed home and hard wired the pumps and now pumps work but injectors are not working and no spark. Plugged a scanner into it to see if it was the crank position sensor but the scanner will not communicate. Called my tuner over and now his laptop won't communicate to the obd2 ether. A 20amp fuse was blown under the hood so replaced that and still same issue.
Any insight to what's going on? Or where to start looking?

I've check all fuses under the hood and left of steering column twice. Could it be an faulty ECU

Sounds like a faulty ecu, check if all the ecu cables are snug

When you hard wired pump, you probably bypassed low flow mode and make your pump run full power permanently. You are running rich when off boost.
