Occasional Cylinder 5 Misfire on high speed

Hey im getting an occasional misfire on cylinder 5 when in the range of 200km/h lol. 6th gear going 180 if i go heavy on the throttle or even half i get a misfire ALWAYS only on cylinder 5. New ignition coils, ngk’s 97506 2 step colder gapped to .022, could this be the injector in bank 5? It has happened at least 4 times now in cyl 5 only and its a constant misfire so it doesnt go away until i shut the car off. I also have some o2 sensor related codes that only pop up when it misfires: 2C3E, 2C7B, 2C7C. Last time it happened when i started the car back up it was struggling to come alive like barely turned over but i quickly shut it off and tried again and it started up. 2008 BMW 335i, vrsf 5” stepped fmic, inlets, bms chargepipe, cts intakes, mhd stage 2+ 94 oct, catless dps, fbo etc...

I would swap coils, then plugs, and then finally injectors. And by swap, I mean I would put cylinder 4 into cylinder 5 and 5 into 4.

Why not kill three birds with one stone?

Swap Plug 5 with Plug 6.
Swap Coil 5 with Coil 4.

Misfire again on 5? Maybe injector
Misfire again on 6? Plug
Misfire again on 4? Coil

Nothing wrong with that.

+1. Do what he said and see if the misfire moves to another cylinder. Injector and coil issues are common in these cars.
