Need Help

ok heres the problem, my car (Tii) will start up but wont idle by itself. when i drive it, it drives normal as long as my boost gauge is at 0 or vacuum. as soon as it starts to boost, it looses power and gets really loud. any ideas?

I know its running too rich and i might have a small vacuum leak if that helps. thanx guys

i posted this on another thread too, but...did you ever resolve this problem? my car is doing the same thing and i had ordered an safc about a week ago so we hooked it up (s5) and when i turn the ignition on the airflow reading spikes to 100%. when you leave the ignition on and press the flapper it jumps down to .4%. i'm gonna try to replace the airflow meter.

any other suggestions are appreciated.
