As far as I know, you've covered all the bases. Those three things are whats required to start the car. You didn't mess with the ignition cylinder/antenna or the antenna module did you? Just the white EWS module, key transponder(chip) and ECU correct? I'd start checking the starter wiring.

Check your battery, all your grounds. Make sure fuel pump is turning on when you turn key to run position (ECU controls this)

+1, even though the fuel pump wouldn't keep the engine from turning over, it will still tell you if it's getting power which will help in troubleshooting the problem.

just another note, the key chips had little pieces look liek magnets connected to them that made them hard to pry out, but they are still on there. How can I be certain that I did that correctly?

alright I'm checking the power wires grounds, and looking for diagrams, but I can hardly read any of them. Is the brown wire the only ground? And the red ones power wires? or wha

don't look at the book, just inspect engine, should have a ground wire on the engine harness and one on the chassis to engine. Two power wires on engine harness as well.
