Doubt it. Have you checked for power at the injectors? That is where I would start.

If you have the CAS out and spin it by hand, you be able to get something from the spark plugs. If you don't that will tell you there is something wrong wtih the CAS or the wiring. If you don't get anything at all, then you either have bad wiring, a bad cas, or a bad ecu.

Man you are not correct at all. The line that the fuel is flowing from should be connected to your filter, and then to the section of the rail that is in the middle of your intake. The return line is always hooked up to the FPR, as it is a restrictor that maintains pressure in the rail

if you are getting power and ground at the injectors then take a volt meter and check the resistance at the injector you shouldnt have more than 18oms at any injector and make sure the pump gas is going str8 to the rail no fpr is in the path and the return line shoud have the fpr on it if that dosent work check the pump and make sure you dont have the terminals crossed meaning in stead of pumping it will push fuel out that should work now

well you can open the ecu and look at the chips in side to see if they look burnt but to be honest the ecu controls the ground side the the ecu hey heres one of my head but just check it u kno that little blue relay close to the ecu yea that one change or swap it out and try that and you could lift the fuel rail with the key on and disconnect the injectors and put power and ground to them with some regular wire to see if they spray fuel if not then your not getting gas

whoa whoa! Sorry to thread Jack here but I am having the same problem....and I saw you mentioned something about the blue relays. There are two off the harness correct? Well can you tell me what this other blue relay (looks identical to ones off harness) needs...please tell me it does need a relay. If you believe that might be why mine isn't inform me please or call me 6018329545 thank you!
