    First and foremost you MUST put your current tune it.
    Second. Return ALL throttle body changes back to stock. If you have a stock file use the compare feature and copy over selected differences. Or if you have the stock "as read" file just reflash and start over. Also a good long log file.
    Third. Any more mods like fresh air, headers, etc. and you may start running out of fuel with those injectors.
    Fourth. Great candidate for BlueCat trans tool. Make a world of difference.

    So maxing timing is NOT the way to cure a misfire. Specific misfires demand specific diagnostic for those cylinders. Given they are different banks it is unlikely fueling unless you have big LTFT's. Don't have time to look at your tune right now though.
