what did you adjust the FVDC to at warm idle?  You could try a lower
percentage, to get a richer mix when in open loop (cold start, WOT).

50% is supposed to be "right," (from my n/a memories) but I believe most
turbo folks set it just under 40% or so.

> Car pulls hard and smooth with less throttle and in 1-2 gears.
> No smoke or funny noises of any colour or sound.
> Car is hard to start and keep running from cold. Usually requires 2-3 tries

> Warm start is fine.
