Generally easy starting when cold and hard when warm can be a couple of things.
1. Fuel filter or fuel pump causing low preasure--check with gauge.
2. Fuel injectors dirty because EFI adds extra fuel to when cold--clean them.
--Clean with tool thing and compressor:

the cleaner in the tank often makes it worse.
--Clean them out of the car--much cheaper:

All that being said you probably have a leak in you fuel system like

I don't think it is your fuel pump if it initially comes up yo
pressure when running.
