My car cuts out!!!

I have an x reg mark 4 golf 1.4. it keeps cutting out on me either when i break or have the clutch down. anyone know what the problem is and how much it will cost to resolve?
the car also doesnt let me go past 1000 revs when i first start it up, so im shunting for a while. i have to keep reving the engine in neutral for about 5 minutes. anyone know of the problem?

I brought a central locking kit for a mark 4 golf 1.6 automatic and i need to know what wire's need cutting?

There is no need to cut wires, you just remove the old one by disconnecting the connectors. If you start cutting, you'll just destroy the wire harness and defeat the concept of connectors. Besides you don't have a diagram of the electrical system. Now if this is an aftermarket unit, all I can say is good luck trying to adopt that system to your immobilizer system (anti theft).

You blew the clutch cylinder or the related slave cylinder.  Refill with brake fluid and check for leaks and remember to bleed out the air.
