chopping and cutting

aite so im on my way home from school, and im running my car hard on the turnpike...so i gun it right after the toll, and i feel the power, but around 5k+ rpm in first gear the car doesn't seem like its accelerating anymore and it wasn't the rev limiter.....
after i get off the highway, and im only doin like 30-40mph.....im in 3rd gear running round 2k rpm.......it feels choppy RIGHT around 2k rpm and if ur lower or higher it feels fine....? and sometimes as i revved high and let go of the gas, right after i let go of hte gas as the rpms begin to drop its feels choppy....
and finally its started stallin at idle...(at stop lights) it would idle at 1k rpm...then drop to 600rpm (normal idle) then cut....


wut are these symptoms of??

in teh past, sometimes wen i ran it hard on teh highway, it would stall at idle wen i stopped....and i would need ot turn the engine over 2 or 3 or more times to get it started....

im not sure wut it is....but could it be spark plugs/coils? fuel injectors? something to do w/teh throttle...
