I NEED HELP car keeps stalling
hey guys i need some help my car has been stalling out on me everytime i try driving it (i only drive it around the block to see if its goin to stall). fuel pump keeps priming and car stalls out,me and my buddy (whos a mech. and does wrk with tuner cars) have been trying to figure it out we have no clue what the hell is goin on wit it... easter weekend i went out and when i was on the prkwy the gauges all went dwn it was like it shut off but motor was still running and i could dwn shift but gas pedal wouldnt accellerate, and right as i was pullin on the shoulder everything came bck on. then when i was headin bck home it just completlly shut off while i was on the gas.. then this weekend i started it up it ran for like 5 min then stalled out so i started it back up and held gas at 3000 rpms and it stalled out again i let it sit for about an hour went bck out let it run for 10 min drove it around plum and i got on it full boost never acted up then got home let it cool dwn and about 1min later it shut off.. my turbo timer never wrkd, but just incase it was glitching i took it out the other day and stopped at a store lees then a 1 mile away from my house turned off the car turned back on and fuel pump didnt want to prime or kick on so i left key in run position hit the wires under dash and as soon as i did the pump kicked on. today i messed wit it let it run for about 2-3 mins it stalled out.. so i laid lookin under dash tried movin each wire one by one and could not get it to kick back on.. soooooo confused. all fuses are good and switched fuel pump as well after the problem started. any help would be appreciated thanks

ok guys I know I haven't been on in awhile but I had to save $$ to fix the Honda and I THINK I finally figured it out... I was on the phone with AEM, and was goin through the ECU set-up and we figured out that something in the ECU was wrong so it's back in Cali at AEM getting fixed... so we'll see what happens when I get it back. fingers crossed and will keep u posted

update...so I got the ecu back from AEM and I got out to Innovative Motor Works last weekend to get retuned, and it made the 3 hour trip out without any issues which was a big plus. the tune went really good I was very happy with everything John did to the car. it ran strong afterwards and he was happy with the performance. the only change I did to the car was new manifold set-up my OLD numbers were 425whp/287ft-lb on 16psi NEW numbers 457whp/340ft-lb on 15psi, now all I need is nice weather to really see what she'll do
