Two quick things, add some fuel to the 400 rpm section in the primary VE, and see if you can verify how long it actually takes for the car to build 60 psi at the rail. The issue may not be in the tune itself. For the PE, it sounds like youre not going into BE only staying in PE but the settings look correct.

See if this is any better on startup. I changed the whole VE so if it starts better be sure watch your wideband.

No problem.

This should be a little better, what's your fuel pressure set at?
