art n motion had a similar persistent problem and it turned out to be the wiring to the coil packs (bad ground).

do a diagnostics check on teh ECU and it will tell you the error code and the FSM will tell you how to fix it
It could be allot of things or a combo of things, from dirty afm, to faulty O2 sensor even a coil pack harness propblem, get the CA18DET FSM anyway, it will help you out a tonne

does it misfire constantly? or just going into boost?
also does it persist after the car gets warm?
sounds like a coil pack problem to me.. had the same one a while aback...
take it down and chec it..
look up on the net for ways to clean them if u cant afford to replace them...
i cah remember buh i paid 1something for one when i was replacin them
