My car did that when I first bought it. The posotive battery cable was shorting out against the downpipe. There is a little clip that holds it along the frame, but it had come loose. That's an easy one to check, at least.

I had a similar problem which turned out to be the cam sensor. Warmed up the car till the surging occurred, then unplugged the cam sensor. Revved the car and no more stutter so I swapped it out.
