Car is killing upon ignition, insight needed.

I have a 2004 G35 6MT and I have never had a single issue since buying it. However, this morning I went to get gas and a car wash and now when I start the vehicle it will kill right away. The only way I can get the car to continue idling is giving it a small rev. What do you guys think is causing this? I do have a JWT Popcharger (which I put on 500 miles ago) and this is my only mod I have done.

I don't claim to know anything about cars, but if you feel like it was something at the gas station that caused it, the things I would suspect would be the quality of the gas (did you fill up at a brand name gas station?) and the intake; I seem to remember reading that those jwt's are more susceptible to picking up water than others.

Could've gotten water on the MAF. If you own a garage, leave the hood open overnight to assist the motor in drying out and see how it runs in the morning.
