Please help cold start issue

I notice last week only during a cold start, the car idles weirdly and seems to struggle. The RPM jumps up before settling down to normal. While pulling out of my garage, the vehicle accelerated without given gas. I cleaned both the Mass Flow Sensor and Boost Pressure sensor and am still getting the issue. I was on BM3 stage 1 for 4 months and never had any problem but flashed it back to stock, i am running an AWE exhaust (no mid-pipe) with AFE intake, ER catted Dp, and CP. All bolts were done in stages (not all at once). Before returning to stock, I ran a diagnostic on Bootmode (before cleaning the pressure sensor) and got the below codes. Has anyone had these issues before? Please help.

I forgot to mention - I recently cleaned the air filter.

What do your IATs read if you log/monitor them? Sounds like there might be a issue with the CP MAP sensor.

In nearly every car I've ever experienced this in, the problem came down to a vacuum leak somewhere, so I'd check for leaks. make sure the cp and intake are seated properly and if your cp has bungs for meth make sure they're properly plugged, if there's nothing obvious then do a smoke test.

Also if you haven't already, try unplugging the MAF sensor and see if it runs better. 108001 and the above symptoms are pretty common with aftermarket intakes and sometimes removing the MAF will remedy the issue, but still check for leaks obviously

I had a smoke test done and it ended up being that the CP was not sealed properly causing a leak.
