Default sparkplug misfiring problem

so on fri i got my spark plugs from am. i got ngk g power. after finished installing it i started the car and was getting cylinder 1 and 4 misfire. i went bak again try to fix everything but still no luck.

the next day i went to an auto shop and they told me maybe cylinder 1 might be damaged after checking the computer. they advised me to change all the sparkplugs again but they had no guarantee that it would be working. so i said wat the hell y not try it.

after couple hrs the shop finished and told me some good news and bad news. everything went great but they told me cylinder 5 is still misfiring when on idle and when im on the gas it is not misfiring. They say i wont feel any difference but after when i drove it i felt a big difference. definitely the car lost some tq and hp. not only that it sounds lik its still misfiring. and everytime i switched gears i would get a pop sound from my exhaust.

ive driven about 100 miles and still no check engine lights or error codes.

also i hear a big ticking noise at the engine now on idle and on gas. im assuming thats wats robbing my power


wat do u guys think of this???
