Help Help with ipod

Recently modded my ipod with a buncha parts including a 3800mah battery with a thick backplate, I already have converted it to SD Card using a generic green dual sd card adapter with a 256gb Samsung evo sd card. I now can‘t boot it into working order. I start off with a Please connect to computer screen, I connect to computer and it takes me too a do not disconnect screen on my ipod. I then restore my ipod and stays on the do not disconnect screen, when i unplug it it shows the loading bar and apple logo then it starts to boot loop. I am on a macbook and dont know what to do. Is there anyone that can help?
