Check the plug wires and coils.. might be shorting because of the water. Seen this a bunch of times. But should stop once they dry out.

Ouch. Do you have a cold air kit, with a more exposed air filter?
Hopefully it's just the shorted out wires like mbreener said.

Try a TBS :lol:!
My advice would be to start simple, like you're doing- no need to buy expensive parts if you haven't tried the basic things first.
