If you are running lower than stock fuel pressure, do you have any problems with hot starts?

Issues with hot starts are caused by it being too rich.
I am running the fuel rail at 40 lbs. With just the chip I had "hot start" issues, but once I leaned it out using the GIAC Mobile Tuner I was able to get it to start on the first crank just like it would during a cold start.

nDBW hot start fix:
push accelerator to the floor while starting (get off the pedal as soon as it catches).
think i originally heard it back in the a4.org days; some kind of "flood clear" technique, dunno if it works on the DBW. ...works like a champ on mine.
very rarely need to use it, but the apr stage 3 runs rich and if it is really f'n hot out (over 100F) and I try to start it shortly after shutting it off, it will need it.
