Car will not start!

I know there is probably a thread on this but I'm kinda in a time crunch on my iPhone.

I go to start my car and the engine turns over like it normally would, starts to fire for a second then stops. Then in next tries it gets to the point the car won't even turn over. Figure it's a dead battery so we jump it and it turns over but just won't fire.

Is this a result of a completely shot battery or something else? My mods are ZZP stage 3 with the canned tune. 3" CAI, 3" downpipe, Gen 1 projector headlights.

Just checked and no codes being thrown. My brother has a SS as well and we put his battery in and nothing. It'll sputter and spit out some smoke.

Well we got it figured out and the car running, and here is what the problem was.

When i originally tried to start the car, their was just enough battery to kind of fire/sputter and then die. Well when that happened the fuel pump was activated causing the spark plugs to get wet. So after many tries we decided to take the plugs out, wipe them off and then after we did that the car fired up and has run fine since then.
