do you have all the wires pluged in right? You could have a bad wire. Its somthing you did with the install. Did you mess with your injector wires at all? something is mixed up. prolly nothing major just somthing you missed on the install. make sure you have everything connecter correctly.

Is it throwing a code - if so get it pulled and it will tell the piston # of the misfire

If it wasn't misfiring before, and just started after throwing the wires, plugs and coil packs on then it's gotta be your ignition. Like shini said go get the code pulled, that'll help you pinpoint your problem

Check your plugs for a cracked one. If it shows a code it will tell you what cylinder or cylinders it is. Good luck
