My two cents .

I've never heard of any detonation codes! Those would absolutely indicate too low of an octane for the boost being run. Have you? Link? I'd be curious to read about the circumstances.
Misfire codes on the other hand are common around the 650whp power level especially with methanol injection. A misfire code just means the spark blew out before it was able to ignite the mix. There is no proven fix currently but most tuners think the solution will be as simple as closing the gap in the plugs a touch, or perhaps aftermarket plugs that are slightly more recessed.
