Check your sensors on your intake. A buddy of mine once forgot to reconnect his MAF sensor after installing some cable bushings and his car would turn over, but not start. Sounds similar...

Edit: I don't know your mods (if any), but this post is in F/I, so are you boosted?

What's stopping you from being able to tell if the efi fuse is blown or not?

If your motor was blown....trust me, you would know. She would be crying Oil all over the ground.

I think it was a short oversight from their people that do their welding. I'm sure they would have no problem hooking you up with a new pipe, as any company would do.

Hey Byta27, just got your messege, PMed you back

I have a TON of blown fuses around here, let me get you a pic, haha.


Now this problem with the s-pipe HAS been fixed. The guy that works over at Random Tech that was building the pipes was just eyeing the bungs in. Paul and the gang from the VERY BEGINNING had provided them with a fixture that exactly positioned the bung in the nominal position but this guy was just eyeing them in. So with that said, there's nothing wrong with the new pipes and the pipes are being redesigned.

EFI FUSE:





Fuse box on driver's side behind headlight:



Take the lid off:



Picture taken from standing in front of the driver's side fender. This is the fuse you need to check/replace:





Now this is a picture of a blown 30A fuse but a blown 20A fuse will look the same.......only yellow......




The metal link inside will be blown in two, breaking continuity





So, if it's blown, unplug the secondary O2 sensor and replace with another yellow 20A mini fuse, and she'll fire right up.

If it's not blown... (You have a spare 20A fuse attached to the inside of the lid with the white plastic tweezers. Use this to compare it to if you don't think its blown)......then we have an entirely different problem all together, but it IS either spark related or fuel related.

My guess would be that your sensor was CLOSE but not touching like mine, and over time heat from that CV hub melted a small portion of the outter covering off one of the wires and when you dumped the clutch that forceful shutter from the motor/drivetrain was just enough to force that wire to contact the hub. It only takes a milisecond of contact to pop a fuse

while your at it, go ahead and check all the fuses. The larger 40's and 50's have a sight glass on top of them so you don't have to pull those out. And don't pull the relays, haha, no visual way to check those
