Default Low idle and dies(doesn't always happen)

Hey guys,

Rarely happens, but when my car idles for 5 minutes it bogs down and dies. Then I start it up no problem.....this only happened twice.

Also, yesterday my tank was near empty so I went to the gas station to fill up. Once I was done filling up I tried to start the car and it wouldn't start. I cranked the engine over 4-5 times(tried this several times). On the last time I pushed the gas pedal too and the engine started to rev so I pushed the peddle down a bit and held it at 1500 rpms(but if I let off the pedal it would feel like it would die).

I held it for a minute like this and drove off....after that the car was fine.

Any ideas what it might be? Do you think the tuning has to be tweaked a bit more?

Thanks.

My Setup:
T3 turbo
440cc injectors
Chipped P28 ecu
Uberdata (Tuned, not fully though...going back this friday to get vtech and boost portion tuned)

get it tuned then come back when your car acts up again.
