Default No Fuel Pressure?????

Hello all, I've been working on my car for the past few weeks trying to get it ready for the coming summer, but I'm now at a stand still. I installed a new oil pressure gauge on my car, and was going to start it to make sure all the connections were good to go, but my car wouldn't start. I have a fuel pressure gauge on my car as well, so I know there is no fuel pressure, and I can tell that the fuel pump is not running when I turn the key to on.

A little back ground on my car that may complicate things a little further. It has a vortech supercharger on it as well as a MSD boost a pump. It also has a walbro 255 fuel pump. I have checked all fuses and they all seem to be fine, even the fuses for the BAP, one locate on the unit, and one before the relay. I have tried to test for voltage at the pump connection, and I do not see any voltage. On the plug there are two purple wires, one red and one black. With a decent ground, I get 0 volts via the red cable, which I assume is the power. I'm not really sure how to check the relays to make sure they're fine, but I can't see a relay failing...seems like a very uncommon thing to happen. Could me BAP be bad? Is there any way to check to make sure?

When I tried starting the car for the first time I had a click, and all my power was lost, so I checked the battery, and the positive terminal was a little loose, so I tightened that down some. Then I had power again in the car.

Any one have any idea where I can start to diagnose this issue? Or even what I should trying doing? Any help would be great. Thanks.

Default

I forgot to mention that it has the Racetronix Hotwire kit as well.

I guess I'll start checking relays when I have the chance. And I assume I can just bypass the hotwire kit and use my factory wiring to see if that's getting voltage.
