I have tried with 12 PSI and 14 PSI with no change. I guess I could go lower....

Looks like it's time to call John....
Check your knock sensor, make sure it's working and has a good connection.

Thanks, will do. I know it has damage to the connector from the PO. There is a funny story about it, and where I found the knock sensor bolted to. But I will save that for another day.

similar problem here but when I use less aggressive throttle modulation (read I dont just put the pedal to the floor) and let boost build up gradually I usually dont get any stuttering...also...I just failed inspection due to knocking...I related this to the 02 and cat..think these could be rlated in some way?

bluto, post your SMOG test #'s. Then we can give you a place to start looking.
