Default Sputtering around 3800rpm's? (With Video)

I have had this problem for a couple weeks now and its bugging the crap out of me. It has newer cap, rotor, brand new spark plugs. Here is a video for a little better explaination. Its starts sputtering at around 4000 rpm's.

Definitely try new spark plugs first, my old hatch had a sputtering problem and it was only the plugs.
