Default Im ------ stumped....?

Here is the deal, The h22a right now is running like its on three cylinders. I have changed the cap, rotor and coil. I am getting no codes. I dont believe the ignitor is bad becuase if it was bad my rpms would be jumping and the car woulnt drive period. The only thing I havent changed is the wires which are the ones from the swap, which are pretty beat tp say the least. I actually ordered some earlier today which will be here tmrw...Also when I am driving it will miss but if I step on the gas sometimes it will stop hestitating. You can sometimes even hear a crackling or snap coming from the engine. Like a spark hitting a piece of metal??

funny u said that, I noticed in #1 cylinder when I pulled the wire u could c sparks comming through the boot, hitting the sides of the plug hole. Dont think now that electrical tape can fix the issue...I wish I could record the sound it makes when I give it wot....just like spark

um if its running on three cylinders, than the plug of the cylinder that isn't firing will look way different than the rest
