The only new addition is the manual boost controller, but I've experience this sputtering at least twice the past few months. This past week it happened 2-3 times. When it happens it cranks, the engine barely turns and dies for a brief second, sputters up like an old muscle car, and then idles like normal with no hiccup. The starter doesn't struggle or run continuously, so it sounds normal. Basically it's a rough start.

I tried to reproduce it tonight since it's pretty warm today, but it was fine. Car just starts up and idles around 700 RPM. Since the turbo install I don't notice the car briefly revving up on a cold start.
