I had a friend who has a Snap On diagnostic tool do a full scan. Everything came up clean.

I know when I had fuel pressure adjusted to high it would have the same symptoms you have. If you hold the throttle while cranking it started sooner.

Fuel filter issue could cause low fuel pressure at the rail which could lead to hard start. You usually also have drivability concerns with it as well, though.
