Default Car wont start

I had the Whipple installed only a week and I was on vacation most of the time. I tried to start it last night to take it to work and it didnt start right away. It eventually kicked over but then stalled out after 3 seconds. It wouldnt kick over after that. Well I tried again this morning and it still wont turn over. I noticed that the fuel pressure is at 0!!!!!! Does anyone know what is wrong? Im calling the installer but I cant get it there because it wont start.

could be a wiring issue between
the engine bay fuse box and the
luggage compartment (FPDM's).

could be the main fuel pump fuse.

could be the inertia fuel cutoff switch.

Man, you guys are right on all the time. It was the plug located in the trunk. It must have worked its way loose but once I plugged it back in it started right up. I should have checked there first before freaking out.

FYI, Tyco is probably the manufacturer of the plug.
