    '92 318i M54 swapped crank but no start?

    Hello there guys!
    I'm new to this threads, hoping that i could find any kind of help regarding my project.
    Sorry if my english is bad, i'm doing my best with it.
    I have a 1992 E36 318I that i got without an engine and I got a M54B22 engine for almost free sourced from a 2002 E39 520I car.
    I have succesfully installed the engine in the chassis and i am left with the wiring part. I figured some stuff out from these forums but not quite sure. Seen that few people had succesfully swapped m54 engine with wiring also but in e30. How much different is my e36 than an e30?
    Does my e36 have some kind of ews that needs to be bypassed?
    I have MS43 DME with ews delete and updated firmware to latest version from MS4X web with checksums corrected and everything.
    I Have it wired up ( not sure if okay), car cranks but no start. Do i have to use immobilizer wires from X20 connector?
    Also, which one is fuel pump relay and wich one is main relay? ( There are 2 relays on the engine harness, a tyco blue one and a 5pin light green relay)
    I have them like this: light green is fp relay and blue is main relay (but maybe that one is not wired up correctly)
    Am i missing things ?
    Is the 4cyl e36 pump too weak to put pressure in the m54 filter?
    Can anybody "mock" me up a wiring guide between X20 and X60004, but also 12pin connector (engine harness next to x60003 plug) which i guess goes to ignition switch?
    I Can even offer payment i just really want this car to work...

    EDIT: i edited the post because i forgot to tell that i followed DesertBMW's wiring information thread but got confused cause the e36 has a little bit more stuff to connect...
