Help...my car is stalling

When I go up my driveway and pull into the garage (It is pretty steep up hill), the car starts to die with the clutch in. Not sure if it is a fuel pressure problem or what else it could be. It could be my intake causing it, but this is the only time it does it, right as I pass the crest into the garage...
Any ideas??

what's a pretty steep? like 45 degree steep or more than that?

you know all your fluids are going to shift toward the back of your car, including your fuel.

that and you're at an angle, you need more gas with an aftermarket intake, because they suck on low end.

Take the intake off, it'll stop. Then get yourself scheduled for a tune and tune with the intake.

Will do, I cant wait for them to get going around here again. I think the first one is March. They also have some in Cincy too. My friend has an STi so we could make a day of it.

I dont think it is quite 45deg. Maybe more like 35. I am thinking it is a combination of the intake and all the fuel shifting. I dont think it has been reflashed after the intake either, So hopefully when I get that done it will fix it.
