Installation complete but no dice!

I went a couple of weeks ago and got my hondata put in:

S200 Boost and Data logging
550 RC Injectors

Everything was installed and ready to go but when it was fired up the car ran for about 2 minutes and then shut off.

The hondata went into lymp mode and after that it was downhill.

My tuner tried different harnesses, ecu, blue boxes chipped it 2 times and it still would not come out of lymp mode! I had to put back in the Factory ECU and Injectors because the car wouldnt start with the Hondata and Injectors.

Is this a common occurence or can some one shed some light on what it might be!

Were you using saturated or peak and hold injectors and were you using a resistor box?

Saturated with no injector box!

Just a very wild guess. What basemap are you using. Did you check your mixture. Sounds that the car is running verrry rich... making you think it is in limp mode.

Funny thing is that yesterday I plugged in the ECU and the Hondata, (with stock injectors and stock ECU) tried ot start it a couple of times and it finally started and ran fine , but ran about 2500 RPM. So it is not my ECU or my Blue Box. I have a feeling the shop wired my injectors up in reverse, but not sure as of yet!

But I have been told that the mixture needs to be leaned out before i start it on the ECU so it doesnt choke so I guess we will see!

Thanks

Still having issues with my car not staring but I have gain some knowledge! I now know that after installing the injectors and the hondata and letting it run for about 30 seconds it still cuts off , but I did try something new, I held down the gas pedal all the way to the floor and started the car and it ran, but crappy, so I dont know what that means but I guess something is wacko with the basemap!
