HELP!!! Car won't start

Ok so first things first, I have decided that I am electronically un-inclined as far as understanding Japanese wiring diagrams. I ordered an Apexi turbo timer off of RRE.com and the wonderful people at RRE decided to include a Greddy wiring harness written completely in Japanese. So, I thought I understood the basics of how to install the harness and proceeded to install it on my 92' Plymouth Laser. I grounded one of the wires (black), connected another (red) to 12v constant, then I proceeded to connect another (green) to, what I thought was, the ignition switch in the steering column. That being said, I must have shorted something out because now, my car will not start. It will crank over, but it will not start. I checked the spark plugs, wires, and replaced them. The car started, ran for about 5 min. and then immediately shut off (this is after completely disconnecting the TT). If anyone any ideas or suggestions as to what may have gone wrong or may need replaced please reply, my car has been in the shop way too many times. Thanks, Tim

Check all of your fuses.

You most likely connected a ground to a positive and either fried the wiring or blew the fuses. I'm not too sure why your car would start for about 5 mins. and then cut off...First, I would check the starter relay, ignition switch, and the actual starter itself. Somehow(a while back) I fucked up my starter wiring when I installed my new starter and had to bypass all the factory shit and create new wiring, talk about pain-in-the-ass! Will it start all the time and run for 5 mins. or was it just that one time? Did you reconnect all the wiring after removing the turbo timer?
