Exclamation Car Start Up Rpoblem

Man since i bought my car which was 1 month 2 ago, every time when i start it after maybe 1-2 hours it start perfect but then after 20 seconds you can feel the engine go down like dying, it chokes but then it comes up by himself and if i switch in first gear and trie to push the gas it wont go it just chokes and i have to rev up to like 5000 rpm let go it goes for like 2-3 seconds and then it chokes again. After it does it like 2-3 times then its fine. And some ppl told me it might be spark plugs or the fuel filter but i doubt it.
By the way in the car i have AEM short ram intake DC Sport Headers, AEM Pulley Kit Magnaflow exhaust.
I really dont know what going on. waiting for suggestions thanx.

Did you reset the ECU after doing all that? The ECU has to re-learn (usually) the idle and fuel maps.

it might, or maybe the throttle body is dirty. could clean that, or you may need an ecu reflash for that issue.

look at the idle stall one. you may need honda to reflash the ecu.
