if its an fc then its probably the injectors, i have the same problem and everything is new except the injectors which i need to get cleaned and overhauled because they are leaking a little bit causing the engine to sputter because of irregular fuel feed. hope this helps

Put a temporary fuel pressure gauge to see any drop of pressure.

Bad TPS can cause problems such as sputtering yes.
