Can you drive through and past the misfire up to the red line at 6500pm or does it prevent you going beyond 3K?

A lot of things spring to mind such as poor spark, insufficient fuel delivery or a component failure such as the crank speed sensor. I think that you should start with a fault code read and see what is stored on the ECU. Does it idle smoothly?

You need to have the fuel pressure checked.
