I had the same problem (although no zero-degree days here in Atlanta).
Start with the cheap stuff. Check the gap on your plugs. Should be at 1mm. I replaced mine, and glad I did -- previous owner had AC Delcos in there. Should run the NKGs as sold on eEuroparts.com.
But start by checking and correcting the gap and see if that improves things. If not, then replace the plugs, again making sure the gap is correct.
If THAT doesn't work, try running Sea Foam, a fuel additive that cleans injectors. I've had two indies report this is quite effective. You can find it at NAPA, and likely the other auto parts retailers, too.
If you STILL have a stuttering problem, then I think you've got a DI cassette that's dying. Buy from eEuroparts -- best price any of us on this site seem to have found, somewhere around $250.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
