Hi there, get a scan done to check for any unresolved fault codes, check the injectors are operating, start here.

Is the computer the original with the engine? I would also check you idle control unit on the intake. I have the same year and I had to replace it. If it is not functional the car will not get the proper air/fuel mixture upon crank, and it may not start. That may not be the problem, but it may be.
