car runs fine for a few min. acts up, but the big key here is that if you cut the car off and start it right back up it works fine, meaning its nothing that has to do with "warming up" or anything like that.
The comp. is getting a bad reading from something and putting the car in limp mode.
is the car maybe getting too much boost??

like I said, an electrical problem is hard to check over the comp. lol

I'm also considering the O2 sensor right now too, since it comes on after the engine reaches a certian temp, but, i've never experienced a bad O2 sensor put a car in safe mode.
