Electronic problem??

Whatsup guys and gals,
Was driving last night and pushing around 21 lbs (tuned at 24lbs by Tamer) but anyways, i was in 3rd and shifted at like 7200rpms and realized that racing this A4 wasn't worth me getting pulled over. So I pull into a parking lot and my car stalls. I start it up and now its sputtering and when i try to drive it it's kind of bouncy.

Getting it looked at tomorrow, just seeing if anyone can agree with me on it might be eletronic or a sensor??

Almost sure it's nothing in the block, and the turbo is fine. Car takes a few tries to get it idling what Tamer tuned it for.

Thanks in advance for the input guys!
