If theres a lot of "jerking" and popping out the exhaust at WOT then you need a tune up, go over your wires and look for cracks, spark plugs are junk more than likely as well.

Replace the plugs/wires anyways, leave the coilpack there. Stock coil is the best.

Check your TPS wire, since thats a huge issue also.

Popping and jerking, does it blow black smoke too? Almost sounds like limp mode due to a bad map sensor, but it couldnt be since you said "only sometimes" not all the time.

I agree, if you have more than 5,000/6,000 miles on the factory wires and plugs, save yourself some trouble and replace them......MSD wires have held up well for me for over 2 years.....
