Exclamation Car wont start, stumbles

This morning my R1 had a hard time starting. It would just turn over but wouldnt fire up. It eventually did after pumping the gas pedal a couple of times. I had recently changed over to #9 spark plugs all around. I thought these would be the problem and cleaned them out. The car didnt flood and the problem still is there. It sounds like little fuel is getting there. Where to start?

Mods are: Mp, Dp, Intake, RB Catback, G-force Ecu, Pulleys, and profec B. I finally got her to start but it kept dying on me. I let it run for about 10 min. and it idled ok. But the starting problem still stumbles. I have to tap the gas to start her. Im thinking my seals are going. But ill check the plug wires.
