Default Car LAGS and DIES!! please help!

I have a 97 civic with a stock d16 engine. I started up my car fine and everything and when i was pushing it hard from 1st going into second it doesn't max out like usual at 7000rpm its at the edge of 65-7, then I shifted to 3rd and it didnt even go, it just coasted and when pressing on the gas pedal nothing happend untill after 5 seconds the gas kicked in finally. Then when slowing down the car dims out and starts to die....any ideas would be great! I hate when my car dies at intersections.
