took the p car out this afternoon (misfire)
 
ok thinking it was a simple misfire as the turbo kicked in i felt a slight pause then a sudden hook up ( a matter of seconds) about ten min later i hit a full 2nd and third gear , at third i felt another misfire and then it was gone . no codes idle was perfect and can runs fine at low rpms , years ago my maf caused a few probs but i replaced it and its been fine , i did just switch from 100 oct to 91 and changed my program to pump gas , no smoke .. any ideas

How old are your plugs? New plugs and coils fixed my misfires.

^+1 only misfires i have ever had ( not counting any boost leaks which aren't misfires ) were caused by a cracked coil.

coils and plugs. especially if the car is tuned etc.

You may need to change your spark plugs, coils, reflash your ECU, or have you changed your exhaust system as of late?

Bad O2 or TB out of calibration possibly?

Try an e gas reset. Easy to do and you can start there.
