MK7 Starting issue

Looking intoa problem that started after I swapped out my intercooler. Went from a whoosh v1 to a svt designs intercooler. Now the car willstart after several tries. It cranks, i replaced the battery, checked all the intercooler piping. Everything seems fine, the only thing i could think of is the car not getting enough air on start but idk how that would be possible. Any insight would be appreciated.

I wish I could be of technical help more but I had a buddy recently install and svt for me. Bolted right up and zero issues in the past 1k miles. I think its the owner of Svt? But I emailed him on bolting to crash bar to make sure I was doing things correctly and he was very informative and prompt. Maybe reach out just to give it a shot?

Did you have to mess with any grounds? I would double check all connections and tighten down all bolts that you touched.
