hey EMonz57, or anyone else, got a quick question and didn't wanna start a new thread. What do u think of the Works ECU/Brain flash? They simply take a stock Ecu then reprogram it. It sounds so simple and efficient. Jus wanna get your imput cause i know i'm missing something. http://worksevo.com/

do a search on here because there is a whole thread about these "flashes" There are basically three main companies that do it. One of the members here 'xtreme' actually has it. Here is the thread where he talked about his. But do your research on all of them to know exactly what your getting

Also check this link under the ECU flash sections http://www.mitsubishiforum.com/m_102786/tm.htm

These things are extremely common they make HUGE HP gains on stock cars or bolt on mods. They can controll boost and gie you a better AFR and timing maps. I am prob. going to get a flash in the near future on mine. they also raise the rev limiter to 7800-8200 or sometimes higher if you choose. and they raise teh fuel cut which I have a prob with on my car cause mine fuel cuts every time I punch it in 3-5th gear on cold nights. you can also haave them add a 2 step launch setup in which allows you to launch the car in a drag race from nearly full boost

wow....thats exactly what i'm looking for. Now with a WORKS P2R Flash, is it manditory for additional modifications such as exhaust, fuel system, etc? I already plan to replace the stock blow off valve.

It is recommended. If you dont have anything but a BOV and then later you get say exhaust you will need to flash the ECU all over again to get teh power out of your new mod.

I would personally make sure you have at least a fuel pump 255lph and a BOV. they can up your boost for you with the flash and if you want a better power return get exhaust to set it off. Remember this too youll gain alot of power and at the same time get better gas milage. its a win win
