I finally found the cause of my problems...
the dreaded MAF sensor! Yeah I know... I'm such a newbie until it finally happens to me :-]
With the symptoms, I was thinking plugs or coilpacks... I did upgrade the plugs to IK22s in the process. I just didn't think of doing the obvious... unplugging the MAF to see if it runs better. Thanks for the earlier post Steve!
I do have another sensor attached to an OEM MAF, but I didn't have anything tonight to take out the screws... the torx head w/ the hole.
It feels like a new car again... can it hurt much to keep it unplugged for a day or two till I change it?

Thanks Evan!
