i would try holding the key down for a half second or second longer, that should help it get going a little better . . .

i've thought about this on turbo cars, it seems that would be a logical problem for them all, just if you think about how a turbo actually works

so what's happening here?.....is the car running a little
to rich at startup because of less than nominal air flow

Battery going perhaps? Or does it not happen if you haven't driven the car for a while?

Turn the key to accessory for a second before starting to let the pumps turn on, etc and see if that helps.

definately disconnect the battery terminal to reset the cpu.

if all else fails, try to leave the ignition on for a second more before starting the engine so it has times to adjust before the engine starts

I have an 06 with 12300 miles on it and I have the same thing going on. How many miles do you have? Ive been told to replace the fuel filter around 15,000 miles, but especially before you Turbo or Supercharge the car. A mechanic told me that Ford packs the fuel lines with a powder so they wont dry rot when they are sitting on the shelves in the factory and on a new car all that crap has to go through the filter if it doesnt come out before its assembled. Ive heard about this kinda thing happening on other newer cars in general, until around 22,000 miles. The mechanic that talked to me has a new Honda and he had the same thing and the dealer told him it was usual on some new cars.

My battery has been disconnected multiple times and it doesnt change. My car is N/A so its not the turbo.
