    this is going to sound ridiculous but make sure the wires are on the proper coils/plugs. after i did my headers and plugs i had the same thing. i couldn't believe i miss something that stupid. it's worth checking out.

    yeah well I have adjusted them several times now swapping from 5-3 and than swapping wire 3 completely

    it was pretty obvious when I had them wired wrong on one occasion as soon as it fired up I could tell it was a consistent misfire

    this really only happens towards the higher RPMs and idle is completely normal around 700ish
