Default Cold engine bogging after CMDP's?

Wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

Over the winter I removed my CMDP's (motor & all) and got a Bama tune through AM.

On a cold start in the morning, when temps outside are cooler, the engine bogs really bad below 1500-2000 RPM or so. Above that it's fine, and once you drive it a mile or so, it goes away. It also never does it when outside temperatures are warmer, I've never once noticed it when leaving work even when the car has sat 8+ hours while I was at work. Other than that the car runs great and I'm getting no CEL.

What's causing this, is it just the now wide-open ports and cold engine just being sluggish at startup?

Sounds tune related, probably the MAF transfer. More air is getting into the cylinders and the cooler temps exacerbate it a little bit to the point where it bogs a hair lean.

Hey - Sorry to hear about the trouble here. It's sounding like this could be tune related as this is only occurring on cold start and it's likely in relation to a table that's associated with coolant temp. Please shoot the Bama Team a call and they'll work with you to have this sorted.

I will have to do that.

It seems like the temp threshold is around 70 degrees- the last couple days I have left for work and the the temp was above 70 in the morning, and it ran fine. Kinda weird.
