Did you connect all hoses? Did you connect your throttle body connections?

Yep...


Turns out all you had to really do was tell me how much a maf was. After that the problem solved it's self.


Thank ya'll so much for the help. Its crazy i can get so many suggestions at 3am on a sunday night, and i appreciate the hell outta it

And I'm not paticularly good at troubleshooting but i was convinced it was the maf. The only thing that gave it away was not being able to give any gas with the brake applied(and the fact that it was unplugged

Haha, yeah. Your description of the problem sounded exactly like an unplugged throttle body. Enjoy the 3IM & tune!
