Check the AFM, CHTS, O2 sensor, TPS, and fuel pressure.

if its having hot start problems after it heats up from being driven for a while then it might be the coolant temp. sensor, if the car turns on and off normally during cold start then im pretty sure the coolant temp sensor is your problem, its only like 40 bucks worth the shot but also clean your Sensor connections
