Default turbo help! problems of course

So we finally finished putting everything together in my kit. An innovative t3/t4 turbo with dezod manifold piping and intercooler. 650 injectors tial wastegate and an aem fic. I figured i could use the 650 and leave them in till i get tuned so i was driving around with them for a total of 1 day. Last night i hit a bit of boost but it cut out on me around 5.5k. it bogged out and my car was not starting. I checked the IC piping cuz it so happened that one of the couplings had come out not to long ago causing my car to shut off so i thought it happened again. i didnt c anything wrong so after a few cranks and alot of shoving at ic pipes it started up pretty nastily and bogged out for a couple block till i got to my house. This morning i started it up to c if it was good and it started on first crank but sounded pretty nasty (i am running an open downpipe atm, i was gonna go today to get an exhaust made but then this happened) I walked to my office and when i came back i tried cranking it again but thats all it did... crank. I took my moms car to school and when i came back today i tried again with same results. after alot of shoving and lookin i noticed that the turbo outlet pipe was off so i shoved it back in, tried starting it again. it sounded like it was bout to turn over cuz my downpipe popped a few times but nothing. so i tried again same result. I went out reset the ecu same thing. Its been smelling a bit like fuel everytime i crank so now im scared that i either flooded my engine with to much fuel and somehow hydrolocked it (if thats possible?) or it could be just that my injector rail isnt on right. Sorry for the long story but i wanted to put out every detail possible. Any ideas? i would love to get this thing running and was planning to get it tuned morrow after exhaust or wed

thats what id do, wait thats what im doing now....lol

the base map is prolly pretty off so you can either swap to stock injectors and unplug the fic or try different maps. what ever you do def check your injectors and make sure that they are seated well.

You need to make a basemap on the fic for the injectors otherwise youll be running like a 8-9:1 afr lol hey that would actually be perfect with e85 lol
