vw trouble.

so about 2 weeks ago my girlfriends 01 gti vr6 started missfiring under heavy load and the epc light would come on along with the cel. after she did some research and used vagcom it was diagnosed as a coil pack. 2 days ago epc light and cel came on permanantley, and the bucket won't even move.. as soon as any throttle is given it dies. so far i've replaced plugs, wires, and coil pack. still running like ish. so i unplugged the mafs, and when i started the car it ran and i even drove it around the parking lot.. it still would missfire but only after half throttle or more. so i replaced the mafs.. just tried to drive it, back to square 1. i'm literally at the point where i'm ready to part the thing out. anybody have any input?
