Check the main fuse in the fuse box under the hood. I think it's the green one. Are you getting ANY power to the car? Lights, bells etc?

:doh: ^^^^

My hommie did that. I told him NOT TO PULL all the wires out at once when he as putting new wires in. I :lmfao: when he got cocky and told me he knew how to put them back on properly. He fucked up like you did :lmao: I had to open up my hood and have him put them in properly.

:goodjob: on fixing it.

if it sounds like a WRX, like a bogging sound, check to see if you have any water in your spark plugs. take out your spark plug wires and look inside. my buddy had his motor installed by a shop and the shop cleaned his motor, the next day it was bogging and sounding like a WRX. we checked his plugs and it had like 1/4 inch of water in it....
