obviously try new plugs first, but what are the conditions of the missfire? rpm, only under boost?

I used to have problems with plugs backing out of the head which would cause misfire issues in that cyl.

Wires, plugs, coil pack, too rich via afc or bad fpr. Lots of things really.

Check to make sure the plugs are all tight in the head. Sounds like one may have backed out in that month time. That's what I would do next as its free.
