Message As the title says; heres whats happened so far.

Car started sputtering and almost stalling out.
Found 5 injectors were dead, had replaced the #1 a few months ago.

pre-maintenance info:
120k service done about 5k miles ago
replaced fuel damper about 2k miles ago
pcv hoses and valves replaced
compression @160-165 on all cylinders

1. Pulled the plenum, replaced injectors, fuel rails, FPR, valve cover gaskets, half moons, and passenger VTC.
- Started the car and it was idling up and down constantly, rev it and it would stay normal for a few seconds.
- Had a leak coming from passenger EGR tube under plenum, and poor gasket on one side.

2. Pulled the plenum again, redid the valve cover gaskets, bypassed the EGR and pulled associated vacuum lines
- Started the car, it ran for about 10 seconds and died.
- Would not start again, and could not hear the fuel pump

3. Replaced the fuel pump relay; cranks but no start, no fuel pump sound
4. Bypassed the FPCU, can now hear the fuel pump but it still only cranks and will not start

Any ideas?
