Default can someone please tell me what's wrong

my cars been driving fine for a while, now all of a sudden my check engine light comes on, my idle drops from about 1400 to about 800, and it sounds like its missing. the factory boost gauge reads nothing, while the aftermarket one reads boost and vac, but the vac went from about -20 to about -10 where it bounces up and down a couple pounds. can someone tell me what's wrong

um.. if it sounds like its missing, its probably missing. change your plugs and wires. My stealth TT did that. It would drop to a low idle and the check engine light would come on, then if you revved, it would turn off. wierd.

hmmm, doesn't a 1400 rpm idle sound a bit high in the first place? Maybe something fixed itself? (Except for the "missing" part)
