dumping fuel...since you have 42's i'm assuming you have a tuner. is there an accelerator function? either way it's in the tune

Sounds like it's for some reason getting too much fuel now when you're trying to start it, which will make it harder to start.
Who tuned the car for the 42's?

I noticed it takes a bit longer to start my car with the 42# injectors too, not much more, but definately another 2-3 seconds over stock.
