Need some serious help
just finished installing my Xede and need a map. I have the following
HKS Cams 272/272
HKS Gears set at -2/-2
Denso 720 injectors
HKS racing Suction intake kit
Helix full 3 inch SS Catback Exhaust
Helix 3 inch downpipe
Walboro 255 Fuel Pump
Greddy type S Blow Off Valve
I was Xflashed for some of this stuff and i think at one time my xede was preloaded with a map. the light was green when i first checked the install of the xede and then did the cam and fuel injector install i was getting a rough idle with my car backfiring in occasion. however when i plugged in my computer to the serial cable and downloaded the map to view the next time the car was turned on it fails to turn on period it just stalls itslef out or doesnt even turn on at all....now an hour ago it was turning on and idling rough with slight backfire and now it wont turn on at all the xede also has a flashing red light now so i am confused a little scared and dont know what to do any help would GREATLY be appreciated...i also noticed they are closed for the week due to thanksgiving so i really hope the community can point me in the right direction here

First things first... take out the XEDE and make sure the car funtions normally. With the ECU flashed for the bigger injectors, it should drive reasonably well. Cand you confirm this before moving one to the XEDE.
Also, when in the upgrade process did you install the twin power? Last time i checked with HKS a few months back, it wasn't yet available for the EVO 8.
