I've had my 03 for about a year now and every once in a while the engine will cut off. It has happen wile i was on the highway just as many times as it has going through a parking lot. The cars current only mod is 40s flowmasters. Can somebody please tell me how to fix this problem? I'm bout to fix up my car and don't want to start until it is in tip top shape.

do the RPM's just suddenly fall until it dies? does it happen after WOT runs, or even light load? I had the same problem, it would just die sometimes, especially when coming off the freeway or a WOT run. I just tightened all my vacuum lines, and i removed and cleaned my IAC.
