NO start with rouge running N/A kit

[porsche944fan]

So i recently replaced my upper BS rear seal because it was leaking and when i got the car all back together it won't start! I have fuel, I have spark, My ref sensors are bouncing the rpms, My ingestion system is all new and my fuel injects are new and the car itself is a 9/10 so its baffling me! The only thing i haven't check is the MAF that i bought from Joshua at Rouge Tunning about 3 weeks ago, i got the N/a full tune kit with New computer the MAF and chip swell as the 4 deg cam key.

The car wants to start but it just chokes up. Has anyone had issues like this? Maybe I'm missing something? i double checked that very vac line was back in place along with everything else i took off to get the the BS seal. Anyways lemme know if you guys have some insight! Thank you!

I never removed the coil just the intake manifold. I just disconnected everything and put it all back, i just triple check everything is plugged in. Im going to swap out my rouge kit with my old stuff and see what happens

So i swapped to the old AFM and still the same issue.

I removed the intake manifold to see if i missed a vac line and i noticed that there was a haze of smoke coming from the intake valves.

Anyone know what is doing that? I'm guessing thats my issue.

Listen to this video i made. Im not sure why the car will only turn over a few times and then it feels like it gets bonded, I can turn it by hand freely but not while cranking it with the starter.

Sounds like you have a short somewhere in the harness.
Check your grounds especially near firewall and rear intake manifold.
Wiggle some of your wires back there.

Similar thing happened to me, and wiggled some wires and it started right up....
"Ghost in the Machine" Later.

Ok sounds like a plan ill get a friend to wiggle the wires while i try to start it. Ill report back once i try it

Yes JP (guru944), I think so too. I don't believe that has do with the rouge kit, that's for sure.
Porsche944fan doublecheck your grounds / renew them. Check also that your DME-housing has a good ground.
Good luck.

Did you swap the chip back to the stock one ?,the rogue one won't work with the stock AFM.
Did you fit the offset timing key and get that wrong?
Did you install the Rogue chip correctly to begin with ?,it will only fit one way .
Did you wire the MAF to the coil correctly?
Best to backtrack on what you have done and recheck everything again,good luck.
