You may want to check the fuel volume. The stock pump is around 120 litres/hour or 1 litre (1.06 quarts) in 30 seconds.

What happens to the crank time, if you turn the ignition on, the fuel pump will run for 2-3 seconds, then switch off, then start the car?

What are your fuel trims?

You could also reset your ECU. Easiest way to to unplug a MAF, start the car, CEL turns on, then turn off the car. Plug it back it, start the car and clear the code.
This will clear/reset the fuel trims. Then start the car and see if it starts quicker.


I have seen fuelling issues that seem to be caused by deleting the cat.
I think from about 2012 the ECU uses the rear o2 sensors to check for a rich/lean bias on the front air/fuel sensors.
