raised compression causing the starter to work harder?
Knackered starter?
Worn rings needing time to get upto compression?
Lumpy cam/ecu map?

wallace performance in Aberdeen???????
Here?
Could be a host of things.
Maybe
Lack of fuel pressure
Fuel vaporization after stopping/while standing

If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Something simple maybe, engine temp sensor?
If this goes it will be an absolute pig to start when cold
