Misfire problem located.
Finally i found the source of my misfires!!! It seems that 2 of my spark plugs werent tight enough. I noticed this because im in need of changing the valve cover gaskets and realized that there was a good amount of oil in 2 of the spark plug holes. Well the fact that the 2 spark plugs werent tight to spec, allowed for the oil to drip into the cylinder. When the spark plug isnt tight enough, the washer isnt set in, and the excessive amount of compression that comes when at full boost( where i was having misfires) cause the spark plugs to act as a check valve. Now that i cleaned it up, and tightened them down, it runs great. Just thought id share this experience.

I was also having misfire codes pop up, so when i went to remove my spark plugs to check them out there was a considerable amount of liquid in there. . . this cant be normal !???
