I'm guessing there was a mistake with the installation... That's where I would start.

You always tell people to do this

There really is not much to do for a stillen install to f it up.I would start with double checking the cam and crank sensor connections and the ground connection first.

I agree check the cam and crank sensor connections and any vacuum lines. Is it trying to start and just spuddering or is it not doing anything at all?

Reset the ecu and check your idle with cipher.. Also, are you throwing codes? Sounds like a fuel issue/idle..
