Not sure if I asked this, but with your FPR guage, prime the system and let pressure build, and then see if pressure holds.
The SES light was on, I had it scanned at autozone and the code was P0441 again, actually there were 2 codes reporting P0441 one of them was marked as pending (stored in memory) the guy told me both codes might still show up because of that pending code so he asked me if I wanted him to erase both codes and reset the light, I said yes and drove for about 2 hours to test the car, the light didn't came on again.

This morning I reinstalled the new wires again and everything seems to be working fine no rough driving, I checked the spark plugs and the 2,4,6 had a bright redish tone, two of them had a brown spot on the insulator and I don't remember seeing this the first time I changed the wires. The other 3 had a pale redish tone; I think pale redish should be the normal condition right?. The only difference is that I removed the metallic sleeve on the boot of each wire, as far as i know this shouldn't affect but I felt a big difference while driving without them.

I haven't checked if the pressure holds, I will check that tomorrow morning. Thanks for your help tblake
