Randomly when I begin to accelerate my car acts as though its going to stall. I know I am popping my clutch and gassing it properly. It seems to happen when I am starting off, and also happens when I accelerate around a corner. What could cause this sputter?

Check the fuel pressure and then the throttle position and airflow sensor.
