I did have a stutter on mine, turned out to be a faulty temp sensor for the ECU. I have an Apexi PowerFC with hand commander, so I could see the faulty temp reading at times dropping to -49 and car stuttering... Even though temp of the engine and guage on dash board was fine. If you can`t see the Temp reading your ECU is seeing from a faulty ecu sensor, you may not have thought of checking this one as your problem

suggest you check your coilpacks/plugs, common problem on the early cars but you would of known that had you searched

Indeed, stutters from coilpacks and MAF's seem to be the number 1 question on SN

Once you have learned basic mechanics try some basic punctuation, it will help you get more reply's !

Does your car not rev above 3.5k at all or will it go above that but just with no boost ?
