Before cranking, try cycling the key on and off a couple times to run the fuel pump. If it fires up quickly after doing this, you may have a fuel pressure or FPR issue.

 

Sure did! Could a dv be the problem at all? Cause I have chipped my car, but have not upgraded that yet...

 

okay thanks Tweaked!

 

Also... I dunno if this will help at all, I went on a couple of vacations this summer and the car just sat for about five to ten days and both times when I came back from the vacations and started the car, there were no problems at all...

 

Does it do it only on hot start-ups?

 

the DV would only cause you to not boost as high as you could if you had a DV that could hold the pressure.

i agree with the fuel idea. you might want to consider changing your fuel filter. i did mine and it was fairly clogged after 10 years of service.

costs about 25 bucks in parts, make sure you order new washers for the banjo fittings, there are 2 on each line, 4 all together. the 'in' and the 'out' are different sizes. it takes an hour or two to change because its kind of a pain to get to. there are write ups on how to do this. its a cheap fix to try and even if its not the problem its a good idea to do anyway.

 

What do you mean by hot start up? Arizona is always hot... Do you mean like temp wise or after the car has been running awhile? I guess it doesn't matter either way cause it does it every start up unless I restart within like the minute.
