Lets see a picture. Swap your stock box on there and see if the misfire goes away.
Bye Bye:

What brand filter is it? I'm almost thinking the filter you got is restricting flow at High RPM, causing your misfire...

Topic moved here for now until we find out what the issue really is.
Details on the filter you installed would be very helpful.
