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.

Car Info: '68 Camaro SS and a WRX coming soon
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!
