    Check your ecu. My integra gsr didn't have any spark so I replace the distributor but then it wasn't the problem so I got a new ecu it crank right up. If that help. I could be wrong.

    Just incase someone searches this, Here's what I figured out...

    Rywire sends a jumper wire with the harness. I didn't pay attention to that. It jumps 2 pins from where the external coil used to plug in. I ended up using a 20amp fuse, electrical taped the shit out of it. Cranked right up.
