Exclamation No start, no fuel and no spark

Ok, I recently had it dyno tuned and it ran awesome for a while (last fall). It started getting progressively richer and richer till I had to keep it idling manually with my foot on the gas (within about two months). It started to stall out in traffic and wouldn't start unless you put the pedal on the floor. I cleaned the maf, with no results. Weather has been really cold and bad so it's been parked for the past couple months and I ocasionally start it but still idled like crap. I haven't touched the car since the tuning and as of now, it won't start. I put a new ignition relay in reading some of the older posts; no change. All visible fuses check fine. I sprayed some starting fluid and it didn't even fire, dead as hell. I'm at a loss, I've called one of the guys at the tuners and didn't have any ideas why. I don't understand how it kept getting worse and now just plain won't start. I can fill in some more info if needed. Please Help Me!

I did search for those two possibilities but I can't beleive that one of those sensors would just fail from sitting. I'll have to run some checks in the morning. It's begining to be so nice out I wanna take it for a cruise but it's so frustrating!!!

If its been running rich, I'd pull a plug and see if it's fouled out?

Thanks for the clues! No SES light as of now. It won't start but once it does, I'd hope it would have something to show. O2's are the originals so I'm gonna try and replace just for the cause. What and where exactly is the MAF heater fuse? I did try to start it without the maf plugged in but made no difference. And the BCM? Haven't heard of it either.

check and make sure you are getting power to the ignition relay because and there is 2 fuses after that relay one for either bank of the engine. If they are not getting power you will have no fuel or no spark. A bad ingintion switch will also do the same thing. Is the security light staying on or blinking at all while you are trying to start it?? Just some things to look at

nope, no security light. I already went through that problem about two years ago and had a new switch installed. I'll triple check those fuses though.

Confirmed there is no spark whatsoever. Waited a week for the crank sensor to get here and made no difference! I'm stuck!!! Now what? I'm getting tired of spending a hundred bucks here and a hundred there for sensors and stuff with no results. What could go wrong when it just sat for a month?
