Why do you think it's your CAS that makes the car die?
I only ask because you give absolutely no information in your post other than you have an Evo (and a 95 TSI) and it occasionally dies.
Usually it can be tracked down to something simpler like a VTA BOV.

Yes you need it, without a CAS your ignition wont know when to fire the cylinders. It tells the ECU when to fire spark as well as fuel, without those two and just air, car can NOT stay running and will die.
