Default Problems with full exhaust install

Just installed my new exhaust and put the PCM back in after getting it tuned by Ion. Turned the key it started up idled for about 30 sec got some good pedal out of it and then it died. When I try and help keep the revs up the car just dies. EGR and AIR are removed and tuned out, plug wires are all connected (checked and rechecked) EGR port in top of intake manifold is sealed. I'm kind of stumped thought it may be an exhaust leak but I can't hear a leak. Any info you guys can give me will help thanks.
