More than likely a coil (or POS or plug, or plug boot, or...) (And so it begins).

Default If it is that mild then it could be a software or wastegate issue. Try screwing down the...
wastegate screw a couple of turns. If that doesn't clear it up, it could be the waste gate frequency valve.

Or not.

I guess not, swap POS then, that's the cheapest (free). My plugs were 30k old.

Default YES YOU WILL I GO THROUGH A SET OF PLUGS A MONTH ALMOST LIKE CLOCKWORK
THATS UNDER 28 PSI AND NOT THE BEST TUNING, ITS NOT A COIL CAUSE COILS WILL CAUSE THE CAR TO RUN ALOT WORSE ITS MOST LIKELY THE PLUGS OR IF ITS REALLY COMMON ITS THE POS
