If the mechanic didn't get those coil packs fully seated on the spark plugs and tightened down properly you'd experience a power loss... I'd have him recheck his work first before doing anything else.

Yeah when I took the car back the second time they did look over their work and nothing was found and that's when they ran all the tests for vacuum leaks , MAF functionality etc. I'm no mechanic in any way but I'm just putting 2 & 2 together but the mechanic is so adamant that the plugs would have nothing to do with the power loss even though they are different plugs then what was in there before and once again it ran like a champ when I brought it in. I know parts can fail at anytime but its just weird that I noticed the issue when I got the car back. They still have my old NGK's so I may have them put them back in there and see if that changes anything. I'll keep everybody updated on this issue because I'm not going to settle until they put the " S " back in my car.
