Its probably either a loose wire or you got a little too much dielectic grease on the plug. Make sure the boot is fitted on properly. Did they tell you how many misfires you're getting? Did you check the gap of the plugs before installing - if too wide, that could be your problem?

Yes, you are losing power because of this.
