driving me nuts. kills... backfire/missfire?

today driving home, just got car back recently, has the tr224-112 cam and supporting parts...

well it runs fine for a few days, then the ses light came on yesterday, i was like hmmm but ran fine, so wasnt tooo worried about it yet. well just now on my way home for lunch. it was jerking slightly and randomly while i was driving(m6 so felt everything) and then on the last bit on the way home, i revved it to 3k 2x to see if it did anything, and it killed a block after(heard a small pop from the exhaust)... wtf. started right back up, but then died instantly.

any idea what this could be? it was tuned, but not sure how great of a tune it was.

anything guys?

Yup, something broke or came loose. I would first vote for came loose.

First get a code reader which will work with the ignition on and the motor not running. If that leads you somewhere follow the trail of bread crumbs. If not than you are back in the old days. Check fuel first and spark second. You will not have one or the other. Or rather you will not have one or the other in the times and the amounts necessary.
