You might have insufficient fuel delivery, which could be due to a partially clogged fuel filter or failing pump. Try installing a fuel pressure gauge.

You could do a quick test by simply holding a dial type tire pressure gauge on the fuel rail Schraeder valve and have someone rev the engine to recreate the problem.

I had this problem last year in my normally aspirated Escort. I'd rev it up to only 3000 and it would die as if the ignition key were turned off. If I held the gas pedal down, the engine would slow down to 2000 rpm or so and then catch again.

Is your rev limiter set to 5000?
