That's what I thought. My tuner agreed to retune it since the first time he tuned it with massive exhaust leaks from the flanges and never returned after fixing. Just wanted to be sure I didn't have a mechanical issue to take care of first.

Thanks for the help!

Bringing this back from the dead because it's still been plaguing me.
This situation: light throttle in between 2300-2800rpms (5-15%) going up a hill the car misses. It's seeming to only be cylinder 2 that's missing. If I give it more throttle it's completely gone, and if I have it at any other rpms it isn't there.
So far I've swapped plugs, wires, and moved the coil pack from 2 to 4, but the cyl 2 misfire continues.
The car is a 2001 z06 with almost 80k on it. It has a vararam intake, long tube headers, borla catback, and a tune. I'm taking it in Tuesday to get the tune checked, but I don't think this is the issue considering it seems to be consistently cylinder 2.

Maybe a funky valve spring/lifter/rocker arm. Pull the valve cover on that side and take a peek.
