car Breaking up or misfire at High RPM

My car is on an AEM standalone, with 272 hks cams and evo 9 turbo. I just fixed a boost leak and put new bpr7es spark plugs in it. Now it is misfiring or breaking up at about 6000 rpms I pulled the plugs to look for detonation plugs look great no specals or nething. I pulled timing down to 11deg and even 9deg. Boost is also around 21 lbs and car is not on a maf. Any ideas. I was thinking coil going bad, loose grounds (tighten all of them)

Also I was wondering what you think about my cam situation Its HKS 272IN/272EX ex -4 and in -1. Always told the evos run great at 0 and 0 with HKS cam gears

Yes they are gapped .027 to .028 right in there. Thinking its a weak coil or plug wires, trying to find a ohm diag. or something to test coils.

My car was breaking up at higher RPMs before I parked it for the winter. I had new plugs put in and it didn't solve the issue. I noticed my cone filter was somewhat dirty. I washed it out and put it back on. So far it has been running top notch with no break ups at higher RPMs. In my case, my car was probably choking because of the dirty air filter.
