Firewall Bulkhead Connector Help!!!

Ok so here is the story:

I am putting in a FAST Classic ecm and in order to do so stripped out part of the original wiring harness. From the original harness, I took out the ECU, the MAF Burn Off module, the ESC module, and the wiring harness that goes from the engine to the left hand side of the firewall bulkhead connector. I unscrewed the connector and took the left half off.

Now here are my problems, I went to turn on the car and 1) no switched power, 2) no lights of any sort 3) engine wont crank.

I don't really even know where to start, but I am wondering why I have no switched power and if I took some stuff out like the ECU or the ESC??

PLEASE help me!!

You cant simply remove the engine half of the C100 and expect anything to function. The two large red wires in there power absolutely everything in the dash and lights. It also houses your starter solenoid wire

Read this thread and put it back with some trimming

Thanks Pocket, and yeah I know stupid is as stupid does.... I think I need to just put the old system back in alone and scrap this project because I have two weekends to finish it or I have to sell the car.
