Default new car new problems

well i got a new hatch to use as a DD for a while, but last night it started to have some problems

its a 91 Si with a built (eagle rods, Je pistons, etc) B16 with a nitrous kit (i havent used it)

last night it ran great, drove it for about an hour and a half, and the only problem would be a low idle and sometimes dieing when comeing to a stop, not that big a deal... i figure can always raise the idle to temp fix that

but on my way home after about half an hour it started bogging anytime the gas was under 1/2 throttle, anything above and it would drive like normal... i was slowing to a stop to turn off towards my town and rev'd it to keep it from dieing and accidently hit 4K, came to a stop, took off, and the problem was gone. it drove just like before, no dead spots in the throttle

it has a cel which im going to check right now, but was wondering if maybe anyone had any ideas on why it would start and then stop that all of a sudden

any help is appriated, i dont really want ANOTHER car that i have to rip my hair out over

throwing a code 10 if im reading it right.. i looked at the little LED on the ecu cover and it was one long blink, like a 5 second pause, then another, and on like that

i looked up codes and it says IAT, would that cause how it was running last night? even if it seems random?

So finally got it working? Was the TPS enrich huhz. Anyways...try looking at the plug behind your ITM it should be the one in the back there. Not the mapsensor though...maybe you have the two sensors in the back switched up? Could be causing that problem.

Kinda sounds like an 02 sensor.

i thought about O2 as well because of the gas mileage, but could that cause that random gutlessness as well?
