A Bad PCM is rare. Usually when the PCM is Bad, either an injector signal is stuck on or off or the coil signal is either stuck on or off.

If you have Spark and Fuel most likely it's something mechanical at this point.

Did you verify that you have the coils in the correct sequence. It is possible that you have a couple of the connectors switched around. If it is indeed a firing order issue.
