I would get a regulator just for the peace of mind. Can you post a log? When your on the throttle under 2k it stutters like a misfire? Is the stutter while driving ir what circumstances?

My car does it to but goes away once warm. My plugs are gapped tighter and I run NGK br8. If your under 30psi you can get br7. I dont run the BPR like most people.
 
You can try br7 plus. My tuner reccomend them for e85. Are you logging fuel pressure? I would update plugs and wires. Not sure if that's the issue but I wouldn't hurt. If you got the car professionally tuned I want to assume the regulator is ok. Can you post a log up so I can see what it's doing? When you change plugs, gap them a little smaller. If its misfiring the tigher gap helps. What are you air fuel ratio doing during this? So is this issue all the time. Warm, cold, and driving?

Side note, make sure to use correct grammar. A moderator can jump on you about it.
