Uhhh, what about the stuff coming out of your exhaust? "little sparkly and white" sounds like bad cats and you should fix that asap-- your engine could suck that powder in!

I also put dielectric grease on many of the electrical connecters including the DIS, MAF and IAB. Also I put dielectric grease on the coil packs. Also I used the copper autolites for spark plugs. Any help or advice would be appreciated!!!

Did you use dielectric grease on the back of the DIS? If so, you should wipe the dielectric grease off the DIS and use THERMAL paste on it. Of the 4 bolts that hold it in place, the only connections that are important are the bottom 2 bolts, those are the grounds. Make sure they are clean and tight.

The solid material coming out of your car's exhaust pipes was the catalytic converters' ceramic matrix. At least one of those cats is dead. Bury it.

That 4-6-5 order on the passenger side of the coil pack gets a lot of people confused. At least you have two "live" cats in the garage.

Yea I feel dumb for mixing up the plug wires but at least my SHO will be on the road soon. The other y-pipe is from one of my other SHO parts cars.
