Cylinder 3 misfire at idle and WOT

2.0 BWA stage 3 k04. New OE injectors. Constant misfire at idle, very rarely in second gear, very often in 3rd (both at WOT and when driving light) with CEL and never in 4th or higher.
Spark plugs and coils swapped, still misfires on 3. Tried OE spark plugs and coils, still misfires on 3.
Parts replaced ~2 months ago:
New OE injectors
New Hitachi (Hüco) HPFP with Vis stage 1 internals
New Continental LPFP
New OE fuel filter
New OE FPRV
New Bosch MAP
New Bosch rail pressure sensor
Compression measured with the engine warm 13.6 - 13.0 - 13.2 - 13.5
The errors in VCDS say random misfire and misfire on cyl 3 and 4
The attached picture was taken after I took the car for a hard spin and let it idle. Misfires at idle intensify a lot after spirited driving.
VCDS logs 4th gear WOT

There's a lot of carbon buildup which i'm cleaning next week but this doesnt quite explain the misfire in 3rd gear under normal driving or WOT.
The intake camshaft is also a bit worn. Maybe too worn out? The car has always had slight misfires at idle, especially after hard driving.
