My 8 just started to have this stalling problem this morning. The last thing i did to my 8 was install a mishimoto SRI. I had the SRI on since last saturday and it was fine until this morning. My 8 stalls in 3, 4, and 5 gears, but only when i step on the clutch for too long. When i brake(at high speed) it doesnt stall, but the car vibrates, and the RPMs bounce between 0 and 1k. Then, when the car comes to a complete stop the RPMs stay steady. Ive been doing the heel-toe to keep this from happening. So far its been working. I was told the cause could be the ecu trying to adjust to the new air flow, the MAF could be dirty, or i could have a vacuum leak. Im' going to check all this tomorrow and see what happens.
