Have you pulled the codes from the ECU yet to ensure that it isn't a
timing(or other) sensor related issue? I've had a couple of crank sensors go
on me and they seem to run fine when the engine is at speed, but are quite
rough at idle and impossible to start the car when hot. Visit
www.sjmautotechnik.com if you are unfamiliar with the code retrieval.

Just a thought,
