Replaced RCU with an ECU that has been flashed so that the transponder is disabled and the center ECU plug is not plugged in. I have replaced coils, wires, plugs, igniter and crankshaft positioning sensor still no spark. Checked with test light and everything gets power but no spark past coil.

These cars had a problem with the ignition ignitor but to be sure lets check for power and ground for the PCM. Here is a guide to help you confirm the issue and the engine wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works:

If everything looks good I would replace the igniter.

Check out the diagrams (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
