Default Back firing, missing, spluttering V8

I've recently done some modifications to my engine, G&D CAI and Difillipo headers and have since noticed that the car's behaving pretty badly. I think it's mostly when it's cold. It seems to missfire a bit and today i went to put the boot in and there was a huge backfire. Sometimes when i'm cruising and give it some it sounds nice and smooth right through the revs, pull up at the next set of lights and go to give it again and it farts and carrys on a bit right through the same revs. It jerks and lunges forward and i cant seem to get a smooth launch from it.

I'm thinking my problem might be in the electrical circuit somewhere. How do i check to see what's causing it?
