Check the connection at your Throttle Position Sensor. Especially if it happened right after a hard acceleration. I had almost the exact same thing happen.

After many days and lots of dollars spent throwing parts at it, found a loose wire inside that connector. Replaced the connector and everything was just like new.

I guess it pulled loose with engine movement under acceleration. And it never set a code either. It is easy to check, just have someone try to start the car while you wiggle the wires, if it starts, then dies when you move the wire, there's your problem.

This may not be your problem, but it is easy to check, and easy to fix. After that, try to pull codes, then post them here and we can better help you figure out what might be wrong.
