Phase sensor could cause missfire. Especially on boost, mine would get to 4500 rpm on boost and miss like fuck. I changed phase and did plugs, leads, cap and arm all together while I was on and it cured it for me.

Lend me that flame suit mate...... I use NGK BCR8ES from Halfords at £4.75 a set. They gave me no problems on a T34 at 32 psi and I know they were good on a Sapph running 36psi too.
