Does the engine management light come on straight away when it cuts out or does it flicker? 
 
Had it before but not on a C20XE - was a dodgy earth for the ECU. So check ECU connections / earths ect especially if you have replaced everything.

Eml isn't wired up mate I have a Digi dash, ive checked the earths onto the fuel rail and they're fine, ive tried another Ecu and still the same thing happens, the fuel pump is a brand new walbro one also, a few people have asked me if I have the earth from chassis to gearbox but I've never had one since I built the car a few years ago and it's always started up first time.

If you don't have an earth from engine/box to body then you need to fit one anyway. 
Wire up eml to check for stored faults and with a bit of luck your problem will be stored.

Unplug ur ECU and check all the pins for corrosion, I had this and it was because water found its way through the loom gromit and into the ECU
