Not yet. I got the differential apart . As soon as I put it together I'll be chasing the misfire and all boost leaks.

Turns out I initially didn't gap the plugs and two coils were faulty. The seller sent me two new ones real quick and after I changed them the car seems fine

Just bought a set of coils from the same seller. How did you determine that 2 of your coils were faulty?

I was getting misfires on 2 cylinders. I doublechecked everything from connections, to wires to plugs and everything else was checking out. THe easiest way to check is to swap with a different cylinder and see if the misfire carries over.
