Default help with car sputtering

ok this is on the g/fs 01 eclipse rs
has 138k on it and well the problem started yesterday but i didnt have time to look over a few things and right now shes at work with the car so i have to wait till she gets back to go over it but until then i was hoping someone would be able to point me in the right direction so i know what im looking for when she comes back.

when you get on the throttle on take off its fine but once its moving and out of first gear it seems then it starts to sputter at anything above part throttle (or normal throttle for driving) its not really consistent kinda does it when it likes.

my question is it anything common with these cars when it happens? like coil packs bad or maybe some sort of sensor thats a give in?
no check engine light and i didnt check it with the code scanner because i know even with obdII sometimes there is codes without a CEL

when she gets back im gonna check grounds, spark plugs, any and all connections.

thanks for any feedback
