What was your boost at before you had the clutch done? Could be running in a different part of your map now and you have too much fuel drowning the spark. That would probably be the cheapest problem anyway.

I was having the same problem, took it to the shop and changed out everything that you did and also put the factory boost solinoid back in and still had an issue on high rpms. We checked everything twice, couldn't find a thing. Then during autox the car shut down after a misfire, couldn't start it at all, took it to the shop and the crank angle sensor died! Changed it and the misfire disappeared! Its been about 5k mile since the incident and still no misfires.

Hope that helps

Just to confirm was it the crank angle sensor?

The engine was completely fine. The problem was with the shop that was working on my car.
