HELP Kooks Headers P0303 code

I installed kooks long tube headers with cats and their 3 in exhaust. I got the expected o2 sensor codes but I also got a p0303 code(misfire cylinder 3). Is this common until I have the car tuned? Just want to be safe.

Shouldn't throw misfire codes. Check plug and wire.

What's been said. Sometime people leave the plugs in during the install, and they end up getting cracked.

Ok I checked all plugs and wires all seemed to be fine. I straightened all intake clamps as well for good measure on my cai brand intake. What's weird is the car runs fine. No stumbling or anything out of the ordinary.

I will be checking that. Oddly enough the headers have been on for a few weeks and now it threw that code. Just found it weird anyways thanks for the help guys. What's the best plugs to replace the stickers with. Might just do them all.

Replace the OEM stickers with new OEM stickers.
