    You did not get hosed, you just did not know what you were doing when replacing that intake boot, plus you left the car in rain, the water got into ecu damaged it. You did not tell us the whole story.

    Glad to see you got it running, and all this time it was bad DME that is your fault.

      Good to see you got it running, did you know why it wouldn't run before or is this still a mystery?

        Easy man easy. The intake boot was just a coincidence. A car that has no leaks should be able to withstand the rain!! The dme I replaced again, 2nd "new" dme. Be easy brotha!

          I put another dme in, but it did the same thing. I replaced the spark plugs and just cranked it for like 30-40 seconds with my foot to the floor on the gas pedal. I am not convinced it will run again either. After shutting it off for 2 min, it cranked like 15 sec foot to the floor for it to start.
