Default Turns off

Having problems with my car turning off after being on the highway and coming to a stop, it seems the revs just drop too low and the car dies. Had this problem awhile back and cleaned TB, MAF, and increased spring tension on blow off valve, seemed to have corrected it until today when it did it again, any suggestions on how to correct this.

Fuel Pressure issues? Tune is jacked up?

Are there any codes in the DTC? Do you know how to retrieve codes?

No codes except for not having tire pressure monitors, haven't had any tuning done since the supercharger install. I will be performing the idyl relearn procedure, if that doesn't help, I will replace the throttle position sensor. Thanks for your help. Regards
