Problems with the GT.

Well we have been troubleshooting and replacing parts for months now to no avail. The car will start sometimes and when it does it idles okay at first. It drives alright and shifts good to. The trouble starts when you pull up to a stoplight. If you coast up to the light it will idle fine but if you tap the gas it will raise the rpms then drop and continue to do so until it dies. After that it will either fire right back up or it will just turn over and wont start. We put in a new computer and it helped for a day or so then it started acting up again. The only way it will run fine all day is if we constantly reset the computer. I dont know what to do I really do like this car a lot but its beginning to turn into a giant money pit. My mods are E303, 75mm TB from BOI (Thats gonna get replaced), Bassani shorties, catless H pipe, American Muscle CAI (Freakin sweet part for the money) and 3.73's. It is a 5 speed if that makes a difference. If any of yall could help it would be great. Thanks.
