Default I agree with Tom. Sounds like a boost leak. Check the IC, etc as well...
And, if the flywheel ref sensor or flywheel itself were bad, your symptoms would be reversed-stumbling at low RPMs and smoother running at higher ones.

I replaced my plugs with OEM replacements, which should work perfectly...

Any steps to testing yourself, or would I best be to go take it to a mechanic?

Default Everything I've ever seen says only use the F5pdr's.

Default and you could pressurize the system up to the 15PSI if you had a pressure tester correct?
Somehow I think I could put a valvestem on that 3" piece and have the same effect and just use a tire pressure gauge :-)
