Car starts the dies immediately afterwards...

I apologize about the lack in communication to begin with; however, I have a 2003 Civic Si -EP3- and I connected my kpro to my laptop which is running Windows 8 and the Hondata K-manager V.3.2.5. When I connected to begin with I had no problems with my car starting to begin with, but I uploaded the file, 2002-2005 low octane tuned civic si with 270 injectors, since I can't find the tune with the modifications I have. But anyways, I uploaded the file in II position and turned the car completely off and removed to the key as if letting the ecu reset. Then once I went to start the car again the car would go to start and it hit maybe 500 rpm's then instantly die and after that the car has done pretty continually. I have gotten the car to completely fire once but it idled at 500 rpm's extremely rough and I kept the throttled floored figuring it was a possibility of a rough start and hoping it would pull through. When car goes to start it will turn over but it seems as if it's not getting the fuel it needs, but in return the car (when it partially starts) smells to be burning extremely rich. And now whenever I got the car to stay on the one time the check engine light was on the entire time. The modifications that would possibly play a factor into starting the car with a tune would be a Mugen ram box, and a 3 inch exhaust. I have tried resetting the ecu with the factory tune and it does that same exact thing as described above. I even downloaded from the ecu and deleted all previous tunes and tried to reinstall the factory tune (offered in preloadable tunes). This is my daily driver, please help. That's all the information I can possibly give to you right this second.

The tune I was trying to run, was available in the new calibration screen, is k20a3-civic-tuned-low-octane.kal the injector rating is 270cc and description is US Civic Si dyno tuned.
