Default Just changed my intake manifold, now having issue with car not starting

Changed my intake manifold with a powder coated one... double check everything.... car started, idle for about 10 secs and then just stop... went to go restart it and it doesn't restart... everything is connected all air hoses and water hoses. I'm stumped.

No codes via vag com either

Default didn't touch the maf side... and both connectors are plug in on TB

Did change the TB sensor (I think that what is) from the one intake manifold to the other one... wonder if that sensor (which looks like a maf sensor) got damaged. it was really brown on the wire.

Default usually you have to unclick that to remove the injectors...

its at the front of the block/valve cover.

I just pulled the injectors and set them out of the way, didn't need to move them far
