Question 2, Cold, hot or both?
BTW stepping on the throttle does nothing. Fuel injected engines don't generally react to throttle input during the starting cycle.

I agree with Hans on this point. In the good old days of carubreted cars, you'd have to pump the pedal a couple of times to give the engine a little extra fuel for easier start ups.
Fuel injected cars shouldn't need any pedal action to start up normally. The key word here is "normally".
However, if something isn't quite right, then maybe it does.
My WAG (wild azzed guess) would be that a over-rich condition might exhibit this kind of symptom.
Maybe if you had a couple of leaky injectors and two or more cylinders were a tad flooded then a little extra air might be just exactly what the doctor ordered.
Is there more than the usual puff of smoke when you start it up?
What injectors did you put in?
