I really like the completeness of this kit (injectors, ecu, etc.) but all of the little details of the install caused it to take 2 experienced mechanics over 27 hours nonstop to finish.

I'm sure you will get it sorted out. Just give Ben a call today and he'll help you out the best he can. It can be hard to trouble shoot since he's not able to actually see what is going on.
My guess is that there is something mixed up with the Emange install... always double check the wires even tho they are labelled before installing. I didn't even look at those labels that they had on the harness, I just cut them off right away and wired it up as per the greddy manual and the install manual that came with the kit.
The instructions are perfect by any means, but I followed them step by step. I'm not a mechanic and neither is my one friend who helped me, but we both have a little experience with installing bolt ons like intakes, exhaust, and springs... It only took us roughly 15 hours to install my kit from start to finish. I'm MECP certified and have 10 yrs of automotive electrical experience so the emanage install part only took me about 15 mins. (and 5hrs of the time was spent making a custom (bracket) mount for the oil cooler upgrade and washer bottle).
27hrs non stop = over tired and over worked = less productive, I did mine over 2 days... had 9 hrs of sleep in between and it all went great! (even tho those 9hrs of sleep was spent dreaming about the install lol)No limp mode, no black smoke.... perhaps you should get another set of experienced eyes to look over the install just to make sure it's all properly hooked up.
Not trying to be a jerk or be mean, but its hard to help when we can't see phyically that everything is hooked up properly.. I do think tho that its best to get it looked over by a local speedshop or mechanic... if I worked 27hrs straight my eyes would be crossed, hands sore, and I wouldn't be able to concentrate at all..
