Does it do anything prior to shutting off? Do the dash lights, radio shut off as well? Will it start right back up??

does your rpm dip real low before shutting off? if it does, try adjusting your idol

Do you have an Apexi vafc? My connections one time shut my car off. I went in and checked were it connects to the ecu wires one of the wires was loose. I used a gun to make the connections way better. It took a while but it fixed the problem. Dont know what wire it was just fixed it. Never had a problem again!
