Default Engine problem......

I have a 99 prelude with a Greddy bolt on turbo kit...
when i run my car and rev it up.. the RPM drops really low
sometimes low enough to kill the car... I have no idea what it is..
i have no i checked all my hoses.. the fuel rail is sending more than
enough fuel.... also it idles really low.... about 750-810rpm..
but when i let go of the throttle for some reason it drops to 550-675rpm
sometimes the high 400's then the car dies.. any ideas??
ive looked and i have no clue whats going on...

Did you install the new injectors and the box for them. You may not be feeding fuel through all of the injectors, even though the rail says you have enough pressure.

well it ran for about 8k miles before it started acting this way..
by the way i just added fuel injector cleaner...
could that have anything to do with it?
for fuel purposes..
fuel pump (walbro)
fuel rail (AEM)
fuel pressure regulator.. (AEM)
i might already have injectors...
not sure on that

by the way the car doesnt like to start either...
the only way i can start it is click the keys twice to let the pump, pump some fuel...
pump the gas 4 times slowly.... 1 one thousand, 2 one thousand... that slow..
try to start it and then i have to give it some gas.... and sometimes it dies immediatly...
