[FONT=Helv][SIZE=2]Replaced both turbos without pulling the motor and now it cranks over and farts once or twice but thats it. I pulled a plug and its getting great spark, and the plugs are getting gas.  
Is there a sleep mode or anyting that would cause this from not starting? The car ran great and fired right up before we pulled the turbos from underneath.

only electrical things we did was dissconnected the battery and the air box plugs for about 4 weeks.

Find someone with VAG-COM and scan it, it’s your best bet as you can set and read all the readinesses.

try unplugging the MAF then starting it. One of the many times that mine went bad it would start and run for about 2 seconds. I unplugged it and it fired right up as if nothing was wrong.  
also triple check all of your vacuum lines.

edit:

also, not sure if this would be a problem, but try just leaving the key in the “on” position without trying to start it for 5-10 minutes so the throttle body can do it’s auto alignment stuff.

if none of that works, vag-com is your friend.
