I've had it in to several differant places and they all say bla bla bla, give me money...or don't even want to work on it...I wouldn't mind spending money if they were going to "fix" something, but Tires Plus looked at it ($90) and said I need new plugs/wires, after I had told them I had them on order allready.

Those plug wires shouldn't be coming of the coil pack. Either you have them on wrong or tied up somehow where lenth is an issues and there is no flex, or something in the metal parts is bent or messed up and not allowing it to seat right.
For the issues after the car is warmed up, does it always start right away? Here is a link on some things to look at if that happens :

Did the previous owner hack the shit out os the MAS?
Just a few thoughts, but I am the last person you want to take final advice from
Keep that car AWAY from Tires Plus. If you want a shop to look at it contact one of the sponsors on here.
