Still having a massive failure. Anybody who's done this in the Portland metro area? It's really hard to figure out what's going on via forum X.X

Popped the ECU white thing, seems like I got a pretty tight fit, though the rubber still sticks up a bit (but its also kind of chewed up). The connector seems to be in perfect shape, I was really careful not to bend it, it is a $20 pin for crying out loud.

What else could it be?!

Did you ever take a voltage reading on the other end of the wire connecting to that pin? With the ignition on and engine not running, that wire should measure ~12 Volts to ground. If you don't measure that, then there is still an issue with connecting to that pin on the ECM.

UPDATE: VICTORY!!!

Okay okay, it was something DUMB...

One of my wires snapped within the electrical tape wrapping. Not sure exactly how that happened, I must have pulled on the other end. Anyway, just got back from a successful test run. Beautiful, I love it!!!!

Thanks CTScott and others for finding this amazing mod!
