Just a little update to this thread:

I took my car to the shop today, and it turns out the problem was the 90-degree elbow on the intake had slipped off of the throttle body at the bottom, which allowed too much air to go into the engine, thus preventing it from running.

A while back, one the stainless steel support bars on the intercooler broke (which I've since replaced with a new one I had fabricated), combined with the engine's vibrations may have been the cause of the intake slipping off of the throttle body.

Thank you all for the responses
