    Can't get car to start

    finally got turbo build wrapped up and wiring in. Everything is good to go and wired correctly. However the thing wont start. The car will "fire" and stumble but it wont "catch" and actually run. I've got spark, fuel and compression. My tuner from the data logs I sent of it crank says there is no reason it isnt running from the tuning side so leaves something mechanical. The only thing i can think of is timing. BTDC is set to 86 degree's I need to get a timing light and verify only other thing is I'm rather confused on the plug wiring side.

    I have my plug wires ran in this order is it correct or should coil A be 1-5 so on and so forth
