Get a gauge on the rail to confirm fuel pressure. Also double check your getting spark, and make sure nothing stupid is unplugged or clogged in the intake.

After that see what u come up with, Possible sensor issue

What pump did you install? In tank or inline? And what is your fuel system like? Aeromotive pressure regulator with inline filter? Just want the low down on your ride maybe i can help.
