Ok.

My new theory is I fried the fuel pump from poor decision making. As every time the car failed and died were on two freeway entrances where there's a fairly sharp and sustained left turn. And apparently, this car (and WRXs) suffer from a factory flaw of fuel starvation when WOT on a hard left turn. I starved it one too many times and ruined the fuel pump.

Going back to E85 for the summer and will avoid having fun on left turns. Worst case, have to replace fuel pump again and it actually is the fuel source. Best case, racecar.
