looking for recommendations on a good shop to take it to that wont cost an arm and a leg, preferably just an arm.

Your misfire on an 09 is carbon buildup in the intake. VW's had that real bad on that generation of engines thanks to the EGR and direct injection and the only fix is to pull off the intake and manually clean them. It took me 4 hours to do, dealer charges about 1200 for the job. It's messy but probably easier on a tiggy than a GTI! It's a design flaw on the engine and happens to literally all of them.
