Re: vr6 misfire

did you install new lifters? if so they are hydraulic and require oil in them to work properly. They may not be soaked yet along with the upper chain tensioner bolt.
Also lots of misfire issues are related to coil pack arcing, especially full load misfires. WHen the engine is running spray the coil pack with water see if it arcs
