I have never heard of a starter doing any of that. If he started the car, drove to where he was going, got the car up to temp, turned the car off, then tried to restart it and, it wouldn't turn over or struggled to it would probably be the starter.
I would venture to say it is fuel related as several others have.

Fuel fuel fuel. Ignore the comments about starter stuff.. people aren't paying attention to you.
Either your pump is bad (or the connection), your fuel pump relay is bad, your FPR is bad, or your ECUTEK flash is crap.
Personally, I'd start with the easiest stuff first: 1.) replace the pump relay 2.) swap back to your stock pump 3.) Reflash back to stock 4.) Replace FP regulator
Good luck!
