ok guys lemme rephrase my last post. I just installed a rs3871, z32 maf, tomei 555s, tomei elbow, innovate wideband, greddy profec b.

At first when i tried to start the starter buzzed... great dead battery

I yanked a battery outta my pos honda and it got power and everything fine but wouldnt start only thing that happened was the starter clunked like it was going to start but got stuck.

could that be because the battery is outta a honda and doesnt have enough cranking power or did i fuck shit up somehow? any advice would be appreciated and no this is not my first time swapping turbos

idk what your asking but did you start with the basics on why the car wont start?

check fuel
check spark

but the battery issue min you need at least a 550 cold amp starting battery. im running a civic battery but still cranks fin a bit slower.

you prob have a bad starter

fuel and spark arnt the issue cause its not even cranking. The starter works fine its an isis and 2 or 3 months old. I have my battery reloc to the rear so i believe i need a bit more. i got another optima comin to me for free tomorrow cause its 6 months old...worst 225 dollars ever spent
