My TII takes about a second every time, when warm it will fire on the first revolution. I believe its the RTEK thats the main factor for that, well and everything else is in tip top shape too.

My old vert would take 2-4 seconds, that was an original 150k engine though. Anything after 4 seconds and it would flood lol. ah memories of flooding in sub zero weather.

Mine takes anywhere from 3-6 seconds to start cold and 2ish seconds warm. 87n/a with cold air intake, partial emmissions delete (smog pump and cat is all thats left), a/c delete, power steering delete, and single 2 1/2" exhaust conversion. New fuel filter, fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, spark plugs and wires. Injectors are prolly still from the factory back in 87.

Used to have that problem, then wired up a relay to give the starter direct voltage, problem solved. It starts in 1-1.5 seconds every time now largely due to ......

This may be my favorite feature of the Rtek! The stock starting maps are stupid rich, I pulled a good 30-50% of fuel from all but the highest and lowest starting temps.
