Have you tried shifting down a few gears before stomping on it? Cars with manual transmissions don't like to be stomped on while in high gear and low RPM.

what gear are you stomping in it in though? even if you're revin at 3000 in 5th, it will still stutter when you stomp on it.

For a start you may want to check the Thorottle Position Sensor setting and that the O2 sensors are working OK.

your best (cheapest) bet would be to check your plugs, wires, and ignition control module.
