We know nothing about your car from the post. More info is needed mods, codes, recent services/upgrades

i think its somthing to do with your fuel then. Once you start driving, your car burns more fuel, so might be your fuel pump having a hard time with 80s. Might need a aftermarket one? i dont know. any codes?

Check your ground connections. Make sure they are all tight and in contact.

When does it die? During normal driving? During hard acceleration? during decelleration? Turning left? right?

You mentioned "No codes on the interceptor"
So when you get it runing, watch your ignition timing and Long term fuel trims, see what they do right befor/when it does... Check your A/F r right when it dies, TPS, ect.....

Interceptor has it's own screen. Interceptor scanner > Generic parts store scanner.

Piggy backing off this along with checking MAF, you could set the interceptor to record the data so you can play it back and analyze.
