Default urgent .. cutting out

Hi guys , newbie here , I purchased my first ever scoob last night, it's a 94 impreza sti import ..
but it has a slight problem, sometimes cuts out when idling , also when driving sometimes cuts out when trying to boost , but also sometimes runs spot on .. also starts up straight away after it cuts out .. any help would be great as I'm keen to learn with this car

Youtube guides will take you through it,

you can check for fault codes on your version of car too using the diagnostic connectors under the dash , google the procedure , it will let you know if there is a sensor at fault
