Fix your ****, or is that something you're just saying you can do but can't really?

You don't even list what year your car is, or even if it's an FC or an FD.

Good luck.

Check for breaks or rips in the intake visually if you cannot find them, buy some ether (starting fluid) and spray around your intake until you hear the engine RPM's climb. I bet you have a rip.

Also check your TPS and your AFM (search for methods to check them or read a Haynes manual)

Also, if this is a new car to you, you should have changed the plugs, wires, air cleaner and most importantly, you fuel filter to make sure everything is up to par. Then start troubleshooting the problem once these relatively cheap replacements are out of the way.
