1996 Camaro V6 3.8 Misfire's

Hey guys. I have a 96 Camaro v6 3.8.

Love my car, its been an amazing car since I got it.

It recently has been misfiring. And is now getting really annoying being that I am losing power.

I replaced my plugs, wires, and coils. These are what I put on.

Plugs- AC Delco Rapid Fire's.
Wires-Race Package wires.
Coils-Jegs 42.000V coils. (126,000V's total)

With the new coils, my torque has gone up quite a bit. Very noticable! On the down side, its made my misfire's worse. I know its not my Injectors, being they're almost new. I am going to replace my ICM this week and hopefully will fix the problem. I only misfire under load, and when Im under 2,000-PM's. When Im on the freeway at 70+ I dont misfire but maybe on occasion I will. But only on load, like up a hill or grade.

If you know anything about this. Please let me know so I can stop putting so much money into something that may or may not be the problem

Thank you for your time,
Performance-

You already posted this about a month ago, and got responses. Why not continue that thread, rather than starting all over?
