I'm sure someone's asked this before, but the search feature isn't working on my computer at the moment.

I have a '95 SE 5-spd w/ an Injen underhood intake.  When I  give it gas to leave from a stop, there is about a second (or more) lag before the engine revs.  If I just blip it for heel-toe downshifting, sometimes it doesn't rev up at all.  It's very annoying and is leading to me killing the engine often.  I was told it might be that those sh***y plastic guides (timing chain or cam?) broke and are causing a timing problem (the exhaust does smell a bit rich).  Any help?  Thanks in advance.
