Have you checked and triple checked the PCM's wiring harness plugs for bent pins?

I thought the car had to have the correct VIN on the PCM, so the BCM would agree and then the car could start... not sure though.

You computer will handle the larger injectors ok, I drove for days like that. I'm not positive that's the case though, in terms of the PCM/BCM thing. Have to get that verified by someone like Wop or someone else that's tried. I could sware Rice told me he tried it on his car and it worked, so...

I'm pretty sure you have to do that security relearn procedure in order to get it to work. This is what I was afraid of w/ the "write entire"

I tried a different PCM in my car once and didn't have any issues other than a few codes (which I cleared). Drove it around for awhile and it worked fine. I would guess that if you try a PCM from a different year car, than you would have problems. Especially if your car is a 2004 and you throw in a 2005 PCM with the Stage 2 calibration for an '05. Probably won't work very well.
