    I have never had this happen on my tC, but you may want to have the whole electrical system checked. I would also check your ignition system and all your sensors as well. Has this tripped a CEL?

    Another thing I would have checked as well would be the fuel system, I wonder if your not getting enough fuel/air and that's why its stalling. I can't remember if our TB's work on a cable system or not, but maybe the TB isn't opening all the way. Have you done anything what so ever w/ the fuel management? What mod's have you installed as of lately?

    thats funny you bring that up because my wife actually said the same thing. i guess she has expeienced what im going through right now and it was as simple as changing the fuel filter.... so ill look into that this week. im planning ongetting the JDM one but we'll see. i have not yet done aything to the fuel system

    The TB is a straight Drive-By Wire system. I would have your car scanned for pending codes. You might have issue do to a myriad of things. Check for vacuum leaks (loose lines) and loose intake piping. From there, clean your MAF sensor and check your filter. Exhaust leaks can cause problems too.
