When I start my car in the morning and drive it around, it seems to run really rough. It stutters (boggs down) when releasing the clutch and lacks power until any gas is applied. After about 10 minutes of driving the problems are gone. I thought it was due to my bov but that would always happen then.

Today on the way to school, the CEL poped and the car started to rev up and down quickly. Before I could pull over it turned itself off. When the cel came on, my knock gauge, turbo timer, and other accessories started cutting out as the rpm jumped erratically. A few blocks down, the same thing happened. It just goes away. The car shakes as if I am a dumbass who is learning how to drive a stick in traffic. I am not even touching the clutch. I remain on the gas. I am going to check the MAS connector and see if it is coming loose or something. Any other ideas?

Also, last night my car did not want to shut off. The turbo timer finished its countdown but did not turn the car off. I had to kill the car to shut it off. That problem only happened once also.
