The first time will just turn over and die after a few seconds. 2nd time it will kind of start and die or it will fire up. Usually it is finally started by the third time.
I changed the battery to an Optimum Yellow Top and I am still having issues. Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I will say she is definitely what I wanted in terms of power. I also have the black intercoller and cut out the grill for a nice clean look. Maybe a build thread in the future.

I had the same problem.. On the KW tune and Delicious Tune they both would sometimes be hard to start. It would start run really rough then die, if i tried to start it right away it wouldnt start or would run rough and die. if i wait a minute.. and i mean just 60 seconds or more then it would start right up. I do not have that problem with the Moto-East tune. Im not sure what it is. Church tuning said it was the pump, so i replaced it, then the injectors and i replaced those, but it was always the same thing. When i have the Moto-East tune in the car starts and runs great, while the others did have that hard start problem and issues with any throttle position over say 30-40% under 2500. like say going up a slight hill on the highway in 6th and with cruise control on, if it tries to maintain speed it just goes stupid rich and start stumbling..
