Why not have AMS work on it instead of them doing just the tune? They can diagnose the problem, fix it, and then tune it.
I know I was going to do that but they were busy and I wanted to have it done and just have them tune it later, but it took them TOO LONG and still not finished

you need to check this, what version firmware is on the AEM, what version firmware/software did they try to tune it with? if they are not the same version - car will not start!!!!! - it acts like there is no tune at all on the AEM, does fuel pump turn on with key?

Mine will start w/the stock ECU but not the AEM, talked to Inline a couple time, they checked out basemap and said it was fine, I must have loaded it 1/2 dozen times finally took it to the tuner, they couldn't get it to start either. Sent it back to Inline and they couldn't get it to work either, it's now back at AEM. The consensus is it's a bad unit. I've not had it running since the install excpet briefly w/the stock ECU so my situtation is different than yours.

Kind of sucks, I rolled the car over a year ago, took 8 months to get it fixed, finished the install after the car was repaired, had lots of other things going on (like trying to get pregnant w/IVF, we're now expecting twins, wee haw!). Now I'm finally ready to get it tuned and the AEM is bad. In my mind it sort of figures if there was a bad unit out there I was going to get it as everything about this car is seems to be jinxed, haven't driven it since Feb 16 2007.......the day of the fateful roll.

If his cams are not at TDC I don't think it will start with the stock ECU either, which he says it does.
