Is it cutting out when you are accelerating or braking? Did this problem just start or did it get worse with time? What kind of vacuum are you pulling at idle, what kind of boost pattern? Does the car stumble at all?
Give us more information (description) on the operating conditions so we can help.

Check for a plugged tank vent line.If it's plugged the fuel pump can't pull fuel against the vacum in the tank and kills the motor.the next time it dies take the gas cap off and see if it restarts.This problem is more common than you think.
