Need some help...

I just installed Hooker LT's with ORY...Last night car was running fine. Started driving it today and at idle it start backfiring and it ticks at the back of the car like there is a misfire. So far weve checked all the coil packs and the wires that connect to them. We have not yet had a chance to check the wires that connect directly to the plugs due to the car being too hot...
Anyone have any suggestions becides the plugs?? Any help would be appreciated...
