my sr20 feels like it is losing gas. from what i have research it sounds like it is a vacuum leak.

symptoms:
car idols high 2k and then drops down to 1.2k. at 1.2 k the engine burps/pops ever few seconds, rhythmically.
when i launch in first from 1.2k to like 3k and put the clutch in, the car wants to stall while falling back down to idol.
today while driving, it felt like it was losing gas. every time i let off the gas it wanted to stall. i put more gas in and the problem continued...

i am worried and would like some help. thanks :)

my problem was, i had one my intercooling piping loose (cold side). check your IC piping from hot side to cold side for any leaks. hope this helps.
