Hard Starting??

My 09 SS is having a hard time starting over night...it starts up and then gasps for air and almost stalls..then bounces back up

i have intake/tune/catless downpipe..this just started happening after the downpipe..but at the same time my map sensor blew up

thoughts??

Im thinking it has to do with the intake..im going to remove it and remove the BPV and see if that fixes it..if not could just be a catless downpipe thing

nothing to do with your car...

answer to your problem: you live in WINNIPEG :P

how many K on your intake, whens the last time you cleaned it..
check you MAF, I had this problem on my 2.4, cleaned my filter and MAF and she was good to go!

first, get a fill up from a different brand/location than last time.

next, in any order.

MAF clean
TB clean
fuel filter
plugs
