Default Missfire (maybe?) when boosting

It feels like a series of missfires when boosting over 12 psi. The A/F stays between 11-11.5 and the timing is set at what I believe to be a reasonable level. I'm thinking it's the ignition breaking up. It has a blaster 2 coil wired with a dodge ballast and a 92 accord distributor cap. The plugs are ngk one size colder than stock, gap set to .025".
Any ideas? Tuning over 11 psi is new to me, so I'm trying to stay on the conservative side. Could that be a problem?

Went to different plugs and put the stock coil back in and all is good.
