    Alright so I have a misfire problem. At first it was a intermitent misfire on cylinder 3. Now its a constant misfire at cylinder 5. Ive replaced the coil packs, plugs and wires. Still the same constant misfire at 5. Anyone have any ideas what it could be???

    What did your plugs look like when you pulled them out? Were they bent? Do you have any mods on your supercharged car?

    No they were not bent, just black and sooty. So check the fuel compression?

    get compression gauge and you take your spark plugs out and put it in each hole and have someone crank it over while you watch it. unplug the harness that is connected under the coil packs so there is no spark

    The problem was a couple of bad fuel injectors.
