Awkward sputtering

Awkward sputtering
I took my stang for its first road trip today after the cam and dyno tune. After going 60-65 on cruise control for about an hour I hit a light. When I tried to drive from the light, as soon as I would engage the clutch the engine would sputter. Did this twice in a row and on the third it worked just fine. Happened on the same trip at another light 30 minutes later.
On the return trip, no such problems. Also, on a cold start first thing in the morning my car will shoot up to 2k rpms and do a "hard idle" I guess I would call it. Could the two be related and is it most likely just the dyno needs a small adjustment?

its the TSB for the fuel pump as you do have an 05 GT......it is not the tune!
The tune on mine for a cold start will do this...jump to about 2K rpms and slowly come down to 1100-1200 rpms for about 30 seconds and then go to my idle which is set at 850-900 rpms shortly after that....this is totally normal on a cold start!

As for the TSB, how much would that run to fix and what is all involved?
*nvm found prices and labors per the TSB. Thanks
