I own a 2010 Tahoe and installed a K&N 63-series CAI and a CGS cat-back exhaust. It was running fine for about two months. Recently, during cold startups, the engine will crank in a sluggish manner.

Once it gets past the sluggish startup (approx. 3 seconds), it will begin to rev at around 1500 rpm for a few seconds, then drop down to 500 rpm.

It was actually so sluggish on the startup, yesterday, that it died. No problems on 2nd startup, though.

Any ideas, comments, suggestions? Do I need to get this tuned since I have the CAI and CGS cat-back installed?

Other than the two afore-mentioned modifications, nothing else has been done to the Tahoe.
