Default need help fast, RS2000

Right people,

I've put a Induction kit onto my mates RS2000 and taped up the secor, started the car and ran fine, drove it to my mates and was fine, gone out and now it wont turn over, the car wants to try start but nothing, So i've removed the induction kit and replace the old air box and put the secor back where its ment to be, whats gone wrong?

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLP! ME

because it has nothing to tie in with, such as the old air box has a part for it and i bloked it off, looks like a stupid mistake

check the wires to the coil packs mine done it.. i drive home fine went to start nxt mornin an nothin! there a common problem the signals get interupted an the coil dnt know if there cumin or goin. but u shouldnt have to tape a sensor up to put induction kit on coz thats the idle speed control valve thats bolted to side of air box! only sensor i touched doin mine! but check wires to coils coz the slevein breaks down an they touch!

Because if it starts, it might have just been your engine throwing a bit of a tantrum cos it didn't like the induction kit

If there is a serious problem fuel or spark related then it will not start AT ALL. At least if you try to bump start it and it starts then it might have just been nothing. If it doesn't start then at least you know you've got issues.

See, bump starting it worked! It just didn't like you because you put an induction kit on it

First things first, what induction kit do you have?

And does the engine you have have a MAF sensor?

Ah right, looks like a universal jobby.

Can I see a pic of your engine bay please? In particular the air intake setup. You must make sure the MAF is sealed tight and proper when fitting. This is key. The engine may also take a little time to adjust as well to the new MAF readings.

you need the right one for the car because on the air box is a silver valve the HAS to be connected when you buy the right one for the car you get a special plate that you bolt it to.an connect vaccum pipes to from the base that the air filter sits on. on this base theres 2 outlets one for that silver valve an the other for the oil beather on the cam cover. if you need pics let me know an i'll get em for you.
