Since your fuel system is seemingly redundant (I won't recommend a 5th pump ), it has to still be ignition. MSD boxes are known to flake out in weird ways, and usually when hot. New coils are sometimes bad. Grounds, at the negative cable to body, and the copper one to transaxle should be wire brushed and snugged up.
Good luck.
I will double check all the grounds and clean them up. The MSD 6-AL is mounted inside the car on the rear firewall. I don't think it gets very hot in there and from what I've been told by a Porsche mechanic who is also an electrical engineer is that they either work or don't work.

I really doubt the coil as I said it had the problem with the slightly used blaster coil and again with a brand new one.

It really feels like a fuel starvation when. Being driven. Like its running out of gas. That's why the focus is on fuel delivery. It doesn't sound or feel like a misfire.
