FYI, few points on comments in this thread.

The fuel pump will only run for a second or two after turning on the key unless it sees a signal from the crank trigger that the engine is turning over (and this may be rpm dependent). This is a safety feature that prevents the fuel pump from pumping gas onto the ground if the car is involved in an accident that ruptures the fuel line. So turning the key on and waiting for anything more than a second does no good. However, if an injector is leaking down turn the key on an off a few times may cycle the pump enough to get the pressure (certainly a resonable explanation for starting on the second try).

The oil pump is mechanical and requires the engine to be turning over to generate pressure, so turning on the key does no good unless of course you purchased an aftermarket pre-oiler that maintains oil pressure when the engine is not running.

As others have stated there is no choke to set so the normal procedure for starting a FI engine is not to touch the gas. However, FI cars can be flooded just like a carburated car if an injector happens to stick. If the engine does not start after a second or so of cranking with a including more than one key cycle it could be flooded. Holding the throttle to the floor, just like you do for a carburated car will work if it's been flooded. My Avenger does this every once in awhile and holding the throttle to the floor works.
