^^^^^This^^^^^
If you have checked out the coilpacks and spark plugs then the next port of call are the injectors. Are you sure they are S3 injectors? I've seen a car with a K04 upgrade and when the injectors were taken out they were stock K03 ones. If they are S3 injectors then swap the one out of number two for a new one. If it cures it I'd suggest taking the head out and inspecting the piston. I've also seen the damage a faulty injector can do to a piston. Before this you could have a leak down test to see if you are losing compression too. This would show if the valves aren't seating correctly through carbon build up and it isn't a hard test to do.
It is all a bit of a bind, but will pay off in the end.

....There's been a lot of folks on car forums and over a long period of time too, who have reported bad experiences with Jabbasport. So, it's sensible to take notice.
Just hearing how they have dealt with your car is enough to put me off quite frankly.
