Unhappy wrx won't start

I have a 2002 wrx, i was moving my piggyback around when i dropped it on my harness extender that came with the unit and it shorted some wires on my ecm. they were on the furthest connector to the right, i think i was the top right (blue w/yellow) and the one just to the left of it (green w/yellow). the car was running when i shorted the wires. the car wont start. i checked all the fuses and found nothing. so i replaced the ecm.... NOTHING. any help would be great! Thank You

Can you hear the fuel pump charge?? if it is the next step would be to get whats called a noid light (checks signal to the injector) plug it in and crank the engine. If still no start try a small piece of C-4 under the hood and call the ins company
naw just kiddin. try that and see where it gets ya.

maybe I'm full of ...., but how does it act? sounds like it doesn't even crank. If no crank, searching for a bad fuel pump may not be your best use of time... though, if you can swing an '06 STi, methinksI'dgoforit!
