Do you hear the pump run? A new pump won't run unless it has power & ground.
Did you pressure test the fuel system? I don't understand "I have fuel to regulator. Nothing coming up". The pump feeds the fuel rail & regulator at the same time.
Heres a basic diagram, the test port should be where the injectors are in the picture.

Yes I hear the pump running. I didn't pressure test the fuel system. I have gas to the regulator it just seems that I dont have enough pressure to open the regulator.
