That's a tuning issue, most likely it has to do with the throttle cracker table. Try the tuning section.

my 04 gto does the same thing. it is in the tune as the person that tunes me car did it because when i come up to a stop sign or tried to turn into a spot to park, the car would die. what i have found out about mine is that if i will let it idle for a couple of minutes it will not do it again until i stop and kill the engine. then i will have to redo the process. so i can just about garrantee it is in the tune... sounds just like mine..
