Will it start right up if you have the accel pedal to the floor? (shutting off the injectors)

His car fired fine after sitting for 30 min when mine does not with the same injectors......I pretty much ruled out the injectors at that point.
Also I notice when i push the pedal down the crank speed increases which would be from more air, usually when i hear this is when it fires up......

Yes as far as I know they are setup correct....my trims last night were -1 low, -1 mid, 0 high. Up until last night I haven't flashed the car in weeks........
I run the same scaling as my friends car, but a slight difference in variation on the latencies.

I have done a FP leak down test as per OEM manual and it does not seem to be abnormal from what would be "spec".
Basically its like this:
Clamp return hose..... bleed stops = FPR issue
Still bleeds down clamp the fuel feed....bleed stops = fuel pump leak
Still bleeds = fuel injector leak

I had the same warm start issue on 1050's on 93 but not on E85..these injectors I have the issue on both fuels just e85 not as bad.
I have adjusted my IPW table every which way and I dont even sense a hint of something getting better. My friend who has these and his car starts perfect zero'd out his ipw table and his car still started perfect in all conditions. Now why is that?
