Ongoing problem with 3SGTE, dropping cylinders/misfiring

Hey All,
Ive already spent a lot of time trying to solve this problem my engine's having, so much so that ive tried to swap every component over from another 3SGTE of the same model in perfect working condtion to no avil. These are ECU, Air Flow Meter, Distributor, Leads, Plugs, Coil, Ignitor, Fuel Pump, Throttle position Sensor, EFI Main Relay. And I have no ECU Faults,so I don't believe its the knock sensor, I will still unplug the TVIS and test this, I am going to replace the fuel filter today as well incase its blocked up. But what happens is it seems to hit a brick wall ie rev limit, from around 3.5-4K rpm onwards above 75% throttle, free revving or under load, it drops single or multiple cylinders, by misfiring, and shown by excess amount of unburnt fuel going out of the exhaust. Ive even tried moving wires and seems to no avail, it just keeps doing it.
If anybody has any ideas, Id be more than happy to listen, as I am going out of my brain trying to solve this...Its not a common problem I take it! And everybody ive spoken to is baffled as well.
Regards,
Michael
