Turbo BRZ has trouble starting - sometimes

So my BRZ has trouble starting, but only sometimes, when it has been sitting out in the Arizona heat for a couple hours. Every other time it starts and runs perfectly. I will post the YouTube link down below (12 second video) of what the issue is exactly, that will be much easier than trying to describe it in words. If I baby the throttle I can help the starting process but sometimes it has a harder times getting stable than others. Some possible things worth mentioning:

The car has been running all E85 and is equipped with the Delicious Tuning FlexFuel kit

The car has the Ptuning Turbo kit and was profesionally dyno tuned

I live in Arizona where it can get HOT during the day (the middle of the day is the only time I have had this problem).

Any help or knowledge as to what might be causing this issue would be greatly appreciated!

Its probavly had larger port injectors installed
Check the scaling and latency tables
If it running flex fuel they will also have a custom map that altering cranking injectpr pulse width vs ethanol percent check map is active in tune.

Car starts on port injectors only

They will also have had to scale the cranking ipw to take into accounpt the larger injectors

Without access to tune your at mercy of tuner anyway
