Default hesitation after headers

So I just dove my car over to re-tighten my header bolts and as I made a u turn and accelerated a started getting a hesitation under acceleration like a putter... no ses light on... any ideas?

I guess start with the spark plugs (all tight, none cracked/broken), plug wires (none loose or burnt), then check the EGR/AIR hook-ups (if you kept all that).

+1 For plug wires! Check to make sure they aren't burned and the routing is correct.

You guys are good it was another spark plug wire. It's a curse.
