Default Problem starting...?

Hey guys. I am having trouble starting my car. Actually just having it warm up. The car starts up fine, but while warming up, it dies out, so i have to give it a little gas. When i turn it on, the car idles high at first and then drops pretty quick in rpms and thats when i have to give it a little gas. it drops like 3 times in rpms until it finally stops dropping in rpm. Do you guys have any idea what it is? Also, do you guys know why my car idles so low after warm up? it idles around 600-700 rpm. Thanks for your help guys.

could be a couple of things. Maybe a bad MAF or you have an air leak somewhere

Yeah, it was an air leak. I had a rubber piece that broke around the intercooler and it had a big gap, so their was air definitely being loss. Thanks guys again.
