Default Engine Stutters / Wants To Die - When Re-Starting After Hard Drive. Why??

The car is a crx running a d16a6 motor and turboedit with dsm 450's and a gm 3 bar. Ive had the car out only a few times and I noticed today when it did this twice, when you go out for a drive, boost maybe 5 gears total, when you shut the car off. Come out 10 min later and try and start again the thing is very resistant to starting

Itll try and idle real real low and cut off actually if you dont keep on the gas, then you try and rev it up and its like fighting you and wanting to cut. The first time I just left the car for 2 hours, came back out and it was fine, then when it did it when I was at the store I fought it and kept gassing it and just started driving keeping the rev high, did maybe 4 gears then threw it in nuetral while rolling and it was fine again

WTF would cause this? Thanks

The not starting when its hot sounds like a main relay issue but your other problems you mentioned probably mean there is something else wrong. But like the others said, is it tuned? and have you done a compression test lately?

make sure your engine is pulling 22psi vacuum

if not then check compression

On idle it gets 18 vacuum

Just like it always has since startup, I know cars are fine on 18, dont think ive even seen one on 20 at idle, ever

Still sounds like the main relay, I would take it out and resolder the pins, I had the same problem and after I resoldered the pins it was fine.
