Tested battery, fuel pressure and spark, all test good. What do I try now? If possible instructions on how to test any suggestions.

Sounds like you have covered some of your basics already. The next step would be is to check to see if you have an injector pulse at the fuel injector. Adding a link to an article on crank no start. Step #7 will show you how to check for a pulse but I recommend you follow all the steps. If no pulse then I would suggest you look at the crank sensor circuit for a bad crank sensor or wiring.

Let us know what you find with each step. If no pulse, make sure to check all your fuses using a test light and do a scan for trouble codes as well. Here is another article on how to retrieve trouble codes:
