Any one had ChipTorque remove the ECUTek ROM from a MY03-05 WRX?

 

I sent my ECU away to them to have it removed so I could get a open source tune on it and stop being locked into the ECUTek crap.

 

The ECU came back from ChipTorque but car wont start. Starter cranks over, can hear the fuel pump prime, after a few cranks you can smell the petrol in the exhaust. Theres just no ignition.

 

No brant alarm, that was ripped out years ago. Mongoose M80 in place now. Car has literally not moved since removing the ECU so not sure why it wouldn't work? They assured me that removing the ECUTek and putting on a stock ROM would have no impact on the immobiliser part of the ECU. And I do notice that I don't get the red key light on the dash, so it would seem that the transponder in the key is being recognised.
