Default another bogging down question!

alright all you hyundai gurus, i posted awhile back that i was having problems bogging down, and it turned out that it was my spark plug wires. now, it feels like it was acting before. if i give it more than just a smidge bit of gas at an idle, the car bogs down and feels almost like the engine is misfiring until my rpms get fairly high (about 3000 or so). if the rpms drop too low, it bogs down and shakes really bad, and i wanted to know if you guys could help me. in neutral, if i tap the gas real quick, it does the same thing, and when i put it into first, if i give i push the gas pedal in too quickly, it bogs down just like in neutral. it only seems to be when i push the gas pedal down fairly fast. i have new plugs and wires, just cleaned out my K&N filter and just recently had a tuneup too. i've heard that sometimes the oil for the filters will get on the MAF and make it run crappy, but that should throw a CEL i think, which i don't have. i've tried putting everything i can think on here, but let me know if you need anymore info.

sorry about this post, i got it taken care of. i guess tibs are very picky about how you align the plug wires and it seems that they were sparking across or some crap, cuz i got the diagram off the service website and it's running as well as my car can run, which isn't saying much. so once again, sorry about the waste of a post yo.

that wasn't my problem. it was actually you had to put the wires themselves in exactly the right little holders and had to point the wires away from the plugs in a certain direction, otherwise they supposedly spark across each other or something. i don't have the link, but look under the spark wire troubleshooting on webtech.
