I posted on Turbod16.com and they seem to think its ignition related. O well, Ill try at it tommorow one more time (new NGK's will be here), and if nothing improves Im calling a tow truck.
i'm telling you my car had the same systoms as you car did and it was driving me crazy, that at the end i just called a tow truck and it turn out to be relate to the ignition, were apparently some kind of fuse box (the mechanic was hispanic and called it a "pastilla" which i think it means a fuse module) by the steering wheel that was causing my car to not turn on, and stupid thing cost me $300 which if we had known, my brother could have fixed that since all the mechanic did was to resolder the damn thing[:@].

oh yeah, next time you take the dizzy out make some marks to where it was, since i also replace the stupid dizzy since i was getting desperate that my car wouldn't turned on (those things are expensive[:@]), however i took a marker and made marks to when putting the new dizzy i wouldn't mess up my timing.

I just cant get past the plug wire positions. It still sounds like they are mixed up. Thats why its not firing off, but its still getting spark, just at the wrong times. can you post a pic so we can help double-check it?

Well guys, heres the great news! I checked everything today. Fuses, and sensor connections, etc. Cranked the car, and guess what!? It did hmmm hmm, didnt start. I said to my self F*** this S***, and called the mechanic and told him to get this bitch outa here. I've had it up to my eyeball with this car. I checked anything and everything, and I even used a really good pic of my engine comp with the wires way before the turbo install, and the order is right. Nothings working. So hopefully tommorw this crack head mechanic will have it towed. I do precciate all your help guys, you are the best.. Soon as I find out what the prob was, I will post. I wonder.........

A little update. After getting back from the mechanic, Ha! I had a hunch. He said its the ignitor. Cyliner 2 and 4 getting spark. Thats weird, because when I checked, I had all four sparkin, but hey, maybe I ruined it after endless seccsions of cranking lol. The ignitor will be in by tomm, and by Gods will the car will be running tommorow. I cant wait

So if I come across a fairly priced 5-speed I'll let you know? I'm going to the junk yard on Saturday...
