Oof, I get consistent misfires when I redline it as well. Wedge told me to go with BL coils. It worries me that you STILL have misfires with the coils. :(

Sorry I don't have much to add other than a "me too". I avoid redline now, but accidentally hit it on the straight of NOLA Motorsports on Saturday... had to limp all the way around the track to pit. :(

Double check your electrical connectors on your ignition system. I had a bent prong on my #4 PR coil connector causing misfires that took weeks to find.

Ask Wedge to turn misfire detection above 6300 rpm off. Test with your Buttmeter. You will feel a misifre and for the sake of testing it is not really a harmful thing.
You did everything to solve possible real misfires. But you simply may have phantom misfire.

Turning Misfire Detection off is a 10 second effort.

But okay. If you are stuck on Fuel Mode 15 you have something going on.

Fuel mode 6 indicates a problem too, that's component protection mode. Fuel mode 15 is emergency run so probably a result of the issue rather than the cause.

In that first log your HPFP is all over the place. I'd start with getting to the bottom of that issue first.

Yeah its a scored cylinder wall. I don't know when it happened/started happening. Cold compression is still the same so it might have happed a long time ago before. Perhaps even before I got the car. It's only noticable at 20psi+ high rpm.

Currently putting options on paper but i'm leaning towards partout.

have you found what’s causing the fuel mode? i’ve been researching and apparently it’s a lost connection between the O2 sensors and the DME once the car hits high RPM.
