Default what could it be!!!

I was driving my car and I noticed it stutter when I step on the gas, like its choking, what it could be, I checked my oil, and its fine, fuel there is plenty of it, it was doing it from first through fifth gear. What could it be?

Thats what I was getting at. Sometimes the plates in a fmu will form a small pin hole.

Which plugs are you running again? Did the motor all of a sudden start running like this?

My question is with all this money in the engine how come you dont have some good fuel management?? At least do the hack over the FMU. That would probably make your car run alot better. Check your ignotion components as well.
