Mine does it to. I always joked when it was on the Dyno and 15-20 people was there watching. I'd say "Whelp, it's for sale" lol.

One thing that might help - unpin the MAF signal wire to run speed density vice doing it in the tune. I had a truck give me a bunch of trouble once trying to fail the MAF in the tune for speed density.

Try starting it with the scanner on and commanding a richer stoich.

If on E85, try 8.7 or richer, 93 try 13. or richer. I seen this before on Nicks turbo truck and it was starting really lean and wouldn't start.
