Default Bad smell

When i go out for a drive and i drive hard when i stop i smell a kind of burning smell it smells very bad i dont think its my clutch what else could it be??

Also sometimes when im at idle and i tap the throttle the revs go up and when they come down they drop below to like 6-700 and the car vibrates like its going to stall but not so bad.

Should i take it into the dealer???

Do you only smell it when you brake hard, or when you simply just stop after driving hard?

What has convinced you that it isn't your clutch?

As for the revs, how is your airfilter? Mine did the same when my airfilter was bad. I cured it with an AEM cai.
