need help with my 1g........... mods....
hopefully some one can help me, this car has been a headache for far too long.
cylinder head ported polished, 272 hks cams aem tru cam gears supertech 1mm over valves, block fully built as well.

Ok so the problem with the car as of today, last week the car was running but poorly, like there was a massive boost leek it hessitaded when accelerating. no throttle response. i tested for boost leaks, none. now i have 450 cc injectors, and a stock fpr, and i just added a 255 walbro fuel pump. but now when you turn the key to the on position the fuel pump no longer turns on, and my ignition coil will not spark at all, i think it might be the power transistor, but i am not sure please some one help me out what should i do. do i really need an aftermarket fpr just because of the 255 walbro with stock injectors or are they too small????? please some one help me out oh and for the turbo its a small 16g
 
The fuel pump doesn't normally turn on until you start cranking.
When you turn the ignition on does the check engine light come on for five seconds and then turn off?
If it doesn't the ECU isn't running and nothing interesting is going to happen.

But ahh you should make sure the ecu is working..Did you unplug it for some reason, and forgot to plug back in perhapps?Also I'm guessing automatic, You did say you now have 450's..Yes you should have aftermarket fpr with a wally..

Swap ECU's if you can, thats a good place to start, I've had a dozen or so DSM's over the past decade, flawless electrical system. (with the exception of caps issue)

Did you recently do any battery work? miss a ground/ + ?
