Default Can anyone help with my misfire problem?

I have a misfire problem in cylinder #6 and I can't figure it out. I have tried quite a bit and I was wondering if ther is anything else I can do to remedy the situation. Here is what I' ve done so far.
-swapped coilpack (no change)
-swapped fuel injector (no change)
-fuel injector cleaner (no change)
-swapped output amplifiers (no change)
-swapped out ECU (no change)
-new MAF (more power and better milage)
-new temperature sensor (no change)
-new plugs (no change)
-tested wiring harness (coilpack to ECU no shorts or grounds)
-compression test (good)
-leakdown test (good)

I had the same problem but it was in 1 and 4. I used lemmiwinks to bump up the ideal 50 or 100 RPM. I was getting 50-60 misfires per cycle of the vegcom, and now I get 1-5

How'd you know it's just #6, even after you swapped coil packs?
