replaced booster, breaks are good.

Thanks for updating you problem. We all hate when we search the internets to find a problem exactly like ours with no solution ever posted.

i kinda have the same problem except i have a 91 hatch stock ka-de

when i press on the brakes my idle drops to like 400rpm. Same when i decelerate, wtf could it be? I think i might need a new alternator, is there any place i can buy a good one?

did you? my car doesnt die. different scenario and my alternator is fine. I'd assume if it was a vacuum leak then my car would die

you car doesn't need to DIE for it to be a vacuum leak, try again.

Or start a new thread since you think your problem is so different then this one.

i can almost guarantee that most situations involved with your car bogging or dieing or any rpm change when hitting the brakes is because of vacuum leak!
Every topic i have seen about this has lead to vacuum leak. I had the same issue with my car and it was vacuum leak.
the OP had the same issue and it was vacuum leak!
its vacuum leak!
