I made a post before about it dying out on me when i drive or when its
Started. I thought i fixed it but i guess i didn't please help guys..
Its not the ignition switch or the main relay or the fuel pump.
Any ideas??? The car runs a lil rough aswell. Btw i need some advice as
How much boost should i be running if I'm driving it daily? Its a b16 with gsr pistons and after market valves. Right now I'm boosting 15 Psi. I know that's way too much.

PSI means absolutely nothing. 15 PSI through a T2 is perfectly safe. 15 PSI through a T60 would grenade the motor and probably leave it unrecognizable.
Check your mechanical and ignition timing. Check for CEL codes.

I knew it wasn't the "ignition coil fuse". What EMS are you running? Is this even tuned? Fuel system upgraded? What are your AFRs like? Datalogging? Running a wideband?
I already know the answer to all of those questions is no. You probably have a shitty basemap. Take it to a tuner.

Until you post usable specs about your COMPLETE setup in detail, you might as well be throwing darts and buying whatever part it lands on.
