timing / wont start
so I worked late into the night last night (mostly because its the first time I've had time to work on the car in a while) and disassembled the car to get the water pump changed out. Everything went pretty damn smooth and the new pump is on and the new timing belt/idler pulleys as well. Timing marks were all lined up even after turning the engine by hand to double check. Start to put things all back together and finally finish. Go to start the car and... it just cranks and cranks and seems like its "catching" and bucking back after a few cranks. What the hell is going on now? Tried over and over and now the plugs are wet with gas so I'm letting them dry out for now.
I'd rather not have to take every freakin thing apart again, so throw me a bone here. Where do I even begin to look?

yes airflow meter is plugged in
coil packs plugged in
didn't remove the maf from the turbo, just left it there the whole time so I'm positive its not that.
I was hoping I wouldn't have to take off the valve cover and front covers again to figure this out but I guess thats about the easiest way to check
