did you read what i said in your other post? almost guarantee it's a vacuum leak. check all your vacuum hoses/connections, it's very easy for those to come loose.

My car with the FMU did the same thing. That's when I decided to get the 450's and chip the ecu, but I never got my chip long story, so I purchased the AFC, but I've had other problems and is not yet installed. But yeah, with the FMU, the idle, at startup was bad, and it would turn off. Driving it was a different story, ran fine.
