Default post mac-mid/ory install

Just got mac mids and ory on today and o boy. I am running it with a dynomouth setup-crazy loud (wasn't surprised). It is doing alot of popping/backfiring and running weird. When I go to get on it, it almost hesitates a little. I also did the !AIR and !egr. Any ideas???

Did you re-check all the plug wires, spark plugs, etc?

One time I cracked a spark plug and didn't realize it...

i'm going to throw it on the computer today and see the codes she reads. Hopefully it will be an o2 sensor or something stupid like that.
