Did you check you injector pulse? No. Did you check your fuel pressure? No. If your not going to listen to any advice why are you asking?

Edit: Also check your compression.

Try starting it in neutral for the heck of it. And after you test your fuel pressure, injector pulse and compression post your results.

As long as the 2 wires touch each other you can do anything you want.
