Ok, so I the engine misses, more-so when cold, even with 3 different sets of plugs being different brands. I took all the coils off today and ohm'd each one's primary and secondary resistance with the following results:

Primary Secondary
1.1 7009
1.3 7200
1.2 7200
1.2 7200
1.2 7160
1.2 7200

The manual sets the specs at .6 to .9 ohm's on the primary and 6000 to 9000 ohm's. The primary ohm's all ran high but the secondary are great. Are they too far out?? Also, I noted on 2 of the coils where the rubber boot that seals on the plug is glued to the plastic upper piece, there looked to be trace marks in the dust from it not containing the spark. Is that what I am seeing? Maybe these 2 are my culprits?? Any guidence would be great. Right now the plan is to replace the 2 coils I saw the trace marks on...sound about right?
