Weird start up problem.........
My car just started doing this about a month or two ago. I go to work at 6am and work 10 hours. When I go to start my car in the afternoon after sitting for 10 hours it will start and then stumbles a little, then rev up like it does first thing in the morning. I have days that I only work 5 hours and it doesn't do it then. It never stumbles in the morning.
I'm not to worried about it, just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, supercharged or not. It's almost like the car things the engine is warm, but then changes it's mind.
Anyone think it might just be the warmer weather? On second thought it was still warm back in Sept when I installed the supercharger, so forget that.
Updated: A dirty MAF sensor seems to have caused the problem.

is that the only time that it occurs? Mine would do it intermittantly. I changed my tune from 91 to the 89 tune and the problem went away. I don't know if the tune was corrupted to begin with, if there was an issue with the XCAL or what. I've stayed with the 89 tune and will investigate it at some later time. Nothing wrong with the performance of the 89 tune and saving some $$$ over premium right now isn't a bad thing either

Must be temperature related. Mine does the cold start stumble in the morning. The rest of the day it starts just fine. I never let it sit very long between starts during the day.

Someone on the TEAMSHELBY forum posted a similar problem,But never posted an answer.So I guessI was no help but you are not alone.I say it's in the tune.Could it be a problem with the Keep Alive Memory?You would think that it would have learned to compensate for all of your driving conditions pretty quickly,Unless the tune somehow prevented it.
