And that did the trick. Jumped pins 9 and 16 on the KLR connector and it started right up. The air bag was jumped as well so just to see if that made any difference, I shut the engine down, pulled that jumper and re-connected the plug. The car started right back up. Then just to confirm, I shut the engine down, pulled the KLR jumper and plugged the KLR harness back in. The car started back up... that time. Shut the car down to push the modules back into their spot and cover with the carpet... no start. Pull the KLR connector and jumper again, the car starts up.

The KLR is rebuilt so unless a component or solder connection has failed I wouldn't think that's the issue. Is there anything connected to the KLR that would keep ignition from happening? I suspect when one jumps those pins on the KLR connector your bypassing everything controlled by the KLR.

I'm hesitant to run the engine for extended time with the exhaust off and getting that back together is going to be priority. The broken studs on the turbo down pipe are problematic as I'll have to pull the intake and turbo to repair. You know something else will fail and I don't want to dig myself into a hole again.
