Please Help!!

Ok, well im certainly not a mechanic so i have absolutely no idea whats going on with my car. I have a 2003 Lancer Evo 8 and when i am part throttle, almost in boost, and even while im in low boost the engine will start shuttering almost like the BOV is blowing off and holding boost back and fourth extremely fast. the check engine light then comes on and i had my friend read the code and it said i have a random cylinder misfire. Please if u have any idea as to what this could be let me kno it would be a hugee help before i have to take my car to a shop and blow a whole bunch of money if its not something serious. Thank you!

As load increases so does cylinder pressure. This takes a higher Kv for the spark to jump. Worn Coil, Wires or Spark plugs could cause this.
