Magnacore wires (again) few pros

I bought my magnacore wires from Ptuning.com since they had them cheaper than RRM. Today UPS delivered them to my door and I decided to install them.
*one thing to notice before I installed Magnacore wires
My car was jerking a lot when it was cold outside - very annoying.
Few people post the same problem not long time ago, they thought it was hydrolocking.

I opened up the hood of my car, looked aroung for few minutes and decided to take off the coil pack wondering if the wires would be there. After I took them off I noticed that it was stupid b/c the wires were on the side of the coilpack not underneath them. (yeahhhh I know DAHH)
Install was easy +
Gains couldn't notice anything special 0
Getting rid of annoying jerking PRICELESS

OH my car starts up faster +
that's it

Yeah that too whatever you say ............. anyway my car still jerks when it's cold outside!
What happens is that when I drive first gear, second try to push the gas pedal a little bit harder and then the car seems like for less than a sec. it doesn't have fuel and it jerks.
Maybe it's time to change the spark plugs.
