my buddy has an MSM and can't get spark to work. He paid a guy $1000+ to set it all up, and the guy can't make it happen. Anywhere I can direct him?

If you have a boomslang harness (or wired yourself all the signals) I think you have to disconnect the Crank angle signal AND the Cam angle signal. (and keep them disconnected for ever, you can't use them)
Worked on a NB Facelift '01+.
If you use a grinded clip you can open the connector C, lift the small plastic wing and pull away the pins without cutting the wires.
They are the pin 33 and 39 on connector C

NBs in general have always seemed problematic, and I don't know why that is. But for starters, follow the advice of jhoexp and musanovic, and disconnect the CKP/CMP wires from the EMU.
In order to be of much further help, details on the wiring are going to be needed. IOW- a complete and specific list of exactly which wires have been cut, which ones have been spliced/teed, and where they all go. Also, a complete list of the current jumper settings, a .EM2 file, and a .LG2 file with commentary.
I really hope this isn't a boomslang- those damn things use the same color wire for every connection and don't come with any pinout documentation so far as I can tell.
BTW- $1000 to install and tune an EMU? Damn, I'm in the wrong line of work.

yeah, this guy doesn't know all that. He's fucked. I told him to just run stand alone, then throw the stock computer and MAF back in for inspections.
Its over $1000, and they can't get it to work.

No, follow the connecting diagram on emu manual, but don't connect the crank angle and cam angle signals to the emu. (They should be used to monitor timing, but this function does not seem to work on NBs)
Boomslang harness may be expensive, but is made really well...with that the installation is plag & play, except for this 2 wires to cut on NB Facelift.

Also, the people that posted potential solutions, are you running an EMU on an MSM?

Msydnor, you can still advance and retard timing with cam and crank signal disconnected...they should be used just to monitor (and log) timing.
