The IAT sensor is in the MAF meter. Go get some Mass Air Flow Sensor cleaner at the auto parts store and clean the MAF. Oil from the Halltech filter may have contaminated the sensor.
Do you have any datalogs from the car? It's hard to diagnose these types of problems without seeing what the engine is doing.

Use the Iridium plug, gap .044. Pay very close attention to the gapping procedure for the Iridium plugs, you may destroy it otherwise.
