My car in the last year has not idled correctly, the RPM drop too far and bounce back up, I "think" I feel a loss of power; but I do believe that is all in my head as other people who own S200's tell me I'm crazy. ha
That being said, I agree that the TB, vacuum, etc. I would start with cleaning the carb, but make sure if you have an aftermarket intake that it's completely sealed,

Heat makes a massive difference. During the day my car feels really slow and sluggish. Once the sun goes down and the temps drop my car feels like a rocket! Night and day difference lol.

Have you checked the slack in the throttle cable at the throttle body? They loosen up over time and need to remove the slack. There's a thread on how to fix that somewhere on this site but I'm not sure where.
