changed plugs, coils, injectors, head gasket, had head cleaned and machined. good compression. Could the computer be an issue since it's only on 2 cylinders thats beside each other

Check the compression in those 2 cylinders since they are side by side. Suspect a problem there. Since you have done head work check also that the rocker arms are opening the valves.
