Might be the MAF? It could be clogged. We need more of an explanation as to whats happening

A video would be awesome, because we can give you like 5-6 different reasons for this, but a video would help a lot! your average cell phone video will be enough to suffice.

Does it stumble when in neutral not under load also?

It trembles when the car is on park ( automatic ), neutral, and drive. It would struggle to accelerate a lot and it seem like its using a lot of gas just to run. Another thing is that I dont know what to believe if my VAFC2 is right or my gauge is right. What I mean by that is that i dont know if my idle is set right but still strugglin. I would try to put up a video up so you can hear how it sounds.

Well I cleaned tb and maf sensor just to see but nothing today. But then I figure it might be the coilpack. I checked one of my coilpack and I think it is not good. After switchin two coilpacks in the rear for some reason the trembling is gone and now back to normal.
