I will bet you that the protection circuits in the ECU have blown.  Did you happen to jump start the car lately?  I don't know what is going on out there, but I have repaired about eight ECUs with this same problem in the last few months...

Looking for BTDT on no start situation w/ 94 S4 (60k mi.) Stage one TAP. big 
clue #1. The 5 amp fuse just above the (ECU)control unit blows instantly upon 
reinstall.   One person is suggesting that I have a coil gone bad? One thinks 
fuel pump is bad? Battery had been allowed to run down and is now recharged. 
No fuel present at the filter, no fuel pump noise at all. Car cranks but no 
offer to catch and run. Fuel pump 20 amp fuse #17 is good. I am not certain how 
to retrieve answers from the list so please copy answers to bikeaudi at aol.com. 
TIA
