hey all. i am having issues starting my car now that ive got it back together. i have an 87 TII with an S5 motor in it. i am also running a FD Power FC with the Banzai racing adapter for engine management. i got the base tune from Banzai themselves with all the info i provided and they said i should be able to start up and drive (not boost or anything but nicely go to a shop to get tuned ) so today i went to start it up just to see her run! maybe move her around a bit as my mom wants her garage space back lol, but she wont start!! i go to turn it over and it cranks amazingly bit it wont turn over!!! pulled out the plugs and dried them off let the engine dry out as i figured i flooded it, tryied again playing with my fuel pump switch and nothing!!! so i "de-flood" again and this time want to check spark. so i leave the pump off and crank with L1 plug out and grounded, and NOTHING!! then i stop cranking and it lets out a spark! did that a couple times but now it gives me nothing at all!!! i have never tuned a car before with any EMS (and yes i do plan on getting well experianced help when tuning)and would like some guidance in how to at least get it started up! dont know if the problem lies in the PFC or not but if i could get anythings to look for on the PFC and what a good setting range for start up would be that would be great!!



i also have set timing with the cas itself already too so that should be all squared away...but idk....any input would be appreciated!!! thanks

well, found out my "base tune" is really nothing of the such!!! they just set the ign. full retard across the board and cut the injectors all the way down across the board as well....fricken sweet!! so, if anyone has a nice base map for me so i can get my car started and drive it around w/o boosting to get to the tuner that would be like super fantastic!!!! also anyother suggestions on y its not sparking incase thats not it....

well, turns out tha ti am a jackass on this one lol i guess the map is protected so it just shows up that way....



i kept looking through things though and couldnt find anything on my end (doenst mean its not there) so finaly i just hooked up a factory ECU i had laying around, and it turned over and fired up!! (and then instantly died obviously due to lack of MAFS, FD IAT, 720/1600cc etc. set up lol) so i am not sure what is going on...anyone got any input??
