Default HELP installed clutch kit / flywheel now car turns over for 10sec b4 starts

i had a local shop install my clutch kit and a new dualmass flywheel and ever since then my z turns over for about 10 seconds then finally starts up or doesn't start sometimes.. what could the problem be? the shop says it could be something electrical but aren't sure. they checked my plugs and said everything looked fine. also my check engine light and VDC off light are both on.. what could this be from? thanks

Or the flywheel could b on wrong. I would check the sensor first though because that's cheaper. No codes?

thanks everyone for the feedback! i looked into it more and most are saying the flywheel needs to be aligned a specific way and after that it'll start up normally. unaligned flywheel is throwing timing off

the z is running just as it was before now so it was the alignment of the flywheel. im about 1,000 miles since install and pedal to the floor in 3rd and sometimes 4th slips so im going to take it easy.
