Sounds like the intercooler pump is failing which causes temporary power loss.

Intercooler pump is out.. Reason why it worked when you cycled it was because your AIT's cooled down but it will continue to shut down your supercharger when AIT's increase for safety reasons.. With the engine off turn the key to the position 2, walk over to the front passenger side of the front bumper, listen underneath the car and you should be able to hear the pump running, if not then you need to replace the pump.. Do a search on bad IC pump and you will find great advice on how to better trouble shoot and replace a bad IC pump..

Also the gas peddle can go out, I guess when mine went out the sensor in it maybe would heat up, I would give it gas and nothing just would barely idle, if I turned the key off and started it back up it would work again for 20-30 min or so then do it again, and then it got worst.
