My car won't start? (sent to CA state ref, must return car to stock)

Ok here's the deal. I drive an 04 WRX Sedan 5 Spd. I modified it with Injen FMIC, Injen CAI, Helix DP, HKS Catback and Cobb STG.2 Tuning base map. I got state Reff'd and i modified my car back to stock today, Took off The FMIC and put back my Original TMIC and BOV back on, Stock Intake Box, and i left the turbo back on. I then tried starting my car and it just bogged out and died. o_O. I then tried to Stock Tune the car, putting it from Cobb STG.2 back to stock and it still did the same thing, then i tried unplugging the battery for 1 minute and that didn't work, Everything is plugged in correctly! ahh anyone have an idea what's going on?


ANY tips would help alot! thanks - petey
