Default HELP! Car backfires then throws CEL/ Stalls and wont start back up. HELP!

Ok so Im running pretty rich with a base map because I need my car to get to work. Im running open DP also. I have dsm 450s with a walbro 255lph and the uberchip.

Coming off the highway while the rpms are decreasing, my car will backfire and flash a CEL. Sometimes when I come to a complete stop... the car throwes a CEL and dies and wont start until the CEL goes off which is usually 1-5 mins later...


O2 clogged?? what else could it be??
