wait... before trying to diagnose the problem we don't even know what we're looking at here.
before any other questions answers are posted the original poster of this thread should list the following:
make?
model?
year?
auto or manual?
modificaitons done (electrical / engine / transmission)?
have you ever pulled a check engine light?
if so what were the codes?

edit: I just noticed that you posted you have a manual and stage 2. doesn't matter... just post what you got

what CAI are you running. that might be a start... what is the RPM fluctuation? what RPM do you notice it at?
could it just be your boost and not necessarily your RPM? My car does something similar but it's my boost doing it. I'm not sure as to why but I have a feeling mine is due to my timing being off... I'll be fixing that shortly since I'll have to allocate the time to change my timing belt...etc.

are you running the cobb maps or protune maps?
I dont know why this is so hard.....it says right in the map notes that the cobb maps are not certified to work with ANY intakes other than stock. Even without the AP our cars don't like CAI's
