Missing under hard acceleration V70-XC70

I have a 1998 V70 GLT with 73K miles. When I punch it, the car starts missing in the higher RPMs, around 4K I think.

Today I got on it, and the CEL went off. This happened once before, and my mechanic said the code indicated a misfire condition. I asked him to save the numeric code, but he forgot.

He wants to replace the ignition wires (at his cost), but I thought I read somewhere here that this problems would more likely be the cap/rotor (cheaper as well).

Thoughts?

Thanks.
