The car will start if you give it gas but as soon as the RPMs lower it shuts off. I have no check engine light or codes I replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter, cam sensor, fuel pressure regulator, idle air control valve also checked fuel pressure with a gauge and it was fine.

It sounds like you have a vacuum leak which can be at the PCV valve feed line which I have marked in the images below or the EGR valve is not closing completely.

Here is a guide to help you see the easy problems that can cause this issue:
