how many miles do you have on the plugs? have you washed the motor recently?

*edit* after reading the other threads you started asking the same thing, i would suggest pulling all the coils and check to see if you somehow got some water down in the wells

just pull the coils and see if there's any moisture on them, it's the easiest thing to rule out

usually you should run seafoam before you put new plugs in, not after. try a new set of plugs and check the coils. check the air filter and fuel filter while your at it, and get some carb cleaner and spray down the IAC for ****s and giggles.

btw what plugs did you get? on a whim i got some bosch ones out of pure ignorance and stupidity and it ran like poo, idled like i had huge cams, but had the throttle response of a 1.6L civic with a 60trim turbo, but with no turbo up top, and no vtec either. came on here and got NGK TR6 plugs and blammo, runs uber smooth.
