i actually think you did a smart choice by getting a brand new mitsu engine, there is NOTHING like factory specs and clearences and 4g63 is on of the top engines when it comes to clearences, i dont care what anyone says, the relibiltiy of a rebuild engine is faaaaar from the being better than the OEM one. Keep up the good work.

Finished installing the new harness today and guess what....still no spark or fuel. Im beginning to think either SRS unit, crank sensor, or the cam sensor. There isn't really anything else that would cause this.....

If you're 100% sure the immobilizer is disabled it has to be a bad ecu.

Just an update: I am thinking that somehow the immobilizer became corrupt during flashing with Ecuflash. Mitsubishi charges $89.99 to reset the immobilizer code and that's the last thing it could be unless i managed to install 2 bad wiring harnesses.

Can you get a Lab scope to test the crank and cam sensor wave pattern. This will tell if the sensor are working without replacing them.

I lived in Carrollton for years. Most of those guys in that area are shady. Good luck on the new build.
