Something doesn't like the heat. Possibilities include:
-Accel Opti
-IC Module
-faulty coolant temp sensor
-faulty O2 sensors or wiring

Have you scanned it for codes? Do you have the software for a data log? Have you checked to see how the IAC counts respond to it when it "wants to die"? Does the deterioration correspond to the transition to closed loop?

Maybe its the "Pam forless" tune

The fact that a component is new does not eliminate the possibility that it isn't functioning properly or connected properly. The Accel Opti is a prime example - poor quality, based on numerous reports of problems with them.
