Have you drivin in a rain storm recently, like right before you parked the car? I had the same exact problem that you mentioned like 2 months ago. I still to this day have no idea where the problem started but, I let my car sit in the garage for a couple of days and it started right up. Somehow water got into some circuit causing the car to ground out right away and kill all electricity to the car. .....I also do not have an undertray on my car so water may have splashed up onto the starter area...any way good luck and hopefully you figure it out
There was some fluids spilled... i.e. power steering fluid, oil, coolant. i dont know if that would cause a sensor to short out.
Its the ground on the tranny that is shorting out i just need to find what is giving it power.

Thats why i didnt mention those items since they have nothing to do with what is going on.
We never re-wired or anything of that nature.
Just installed everything the way it was suppose to be.
Its Crazy because it cranked to prime the turbo when the we had the crank sensor disconnected. Then we connected it to start the car and let it idle and it started up right away. We shut it off and started it back up a few minutes later and it started to have this problem.

if you disconnect that sensor and try to start it again.. see if it cranks or still sparks.. maybe it has something to do with the sensor if thats all that was done electrical wise.

Another thing i would like to throw in is that after reseting the battery numerous times and checking if it would hold power. The car just lost all power.
Tried to crank it after reseting the battery and it just turned off and now theres no power.
Would that be symptoms of a fried ECU? Since all fuses are good(visually checked).

Have you checked your positive battery terminal wires for any signs off them losing their sheathing? The positive and negative go pretty close on alot of set-ups, could you have rubbed two together and lost sheathing and they're touching which is sending power down the ground to the tranny? Do you run the stock battery set-up? Take some pictures and post up, sometimes pics help spur ideas
