Default Integra wont start/turn on

Here is the problem, it first started when I was driving, car just stop running. I popped the clutch, nothing. Try to start it and the starter just spun and did not engage. The engine turns but acts like it is not getting any fuel.
So I started to poke around and now the car wont even turn on.
Here is what I have done so far....

Checked battery...good
Took valve cover off to make sure timing belt is still on.
Checked for spark....shocked my hand (good)
Checked for fuel by spraying starter fluid in to intake...nothing...not even a hic up. Looked around under the dash to check for burn marks.

Now after all that the car wont even turn on. The horn and headlights still work but that is it now. Did the following:

Replaced main reley.
Checked for voltage at the ignition switch...good.
Checked starter cut reley...good.
In the process of checking the interface box behind the fuse box.

I just took a alarm off of it too. If anyone has some ideas out there or had this happen to them please post or PM me. Thanks

check the starter cble for the turning over part
then go to the engine compartment take out the screw for the gas filter make sure u got good pressure of fuel . if u dont go under the rear seat and change the fuel pump since u already change the main relay . also check all ur fuses

Ok...got it to turn over agian. However still no signs of it running. I poked around some more to find that my ecu had water leaking on to it because of the idiot I bought it off of decided to cut the moon roof drain line to make room for his amp.
So...anyone think that my ecu burned out? Any ideas on how to run checks on your ecu?

Let me know.

so are you getting fuel or not? is your fuel pump turning on when you turn the key to the on position?

Like he said...do you hear the fuel pump cut on when you initially turn the key?

Yes, I am getting fuel, when I was changing the fuel filter I forgot to tighten one of the bolts all the way and it was spraying out when I turned it on.
LOL

Now...is there a way I can test my ecu? If not is there a shop that can test it if I take it out of the car. Unless there is something I am forgeting to do.

You have a friend with another integra? Easiest way would be to swap them and check.

this might sound dumb, but are your injectors working? did your fuel pressure regulator die?
