Answer
Only suggestion is take off oil cap and see if it is pulling excessive vacuum.  It sounds like you could have an internal vacuum leak in your intake.  Or possibly plugged intake passages not allowing the correct air flow.  Also you may want to replace your egr valve it could be opening too soon.
