I was told it was either the cam angle sensor or the coil pack.... which should i replace? I am really starting not to like my car, it keeps dying on me.... :(

I don't have my manual at work with me, but when I get home I'll write up the proceedure for you to test your coil pack. And see if there is a test for the crank sensor.

HEY KIDS =)
I love the ignitions on our cars. My car has been misfirring for that last couple of months. I cant really take it past 1/2 throttle without her studdering =( I did replace my ignition coil ($100 or so from a "Dodge Dealershipe") and ill admit that it helped, but now i have sensors going off and im studdering again. HOPEFULLY, the mechanic that works on my car will be there today from his damn vacation.
I only have to do this, buy all new tires, then i'll be boosting. I never thought this car would be so fun ?
