Hi all!
Last night I re flashed the ecu with Sal's help. I have the protected ecu, so it took a updated flash. I'm pretty clueless when it comes to flashing a car but Sal talked me through it, and it was 2am his time...

I did a baseline dynolicious run pre tune. I know some people might think that means little or nothing but I've fount it to be very consistent on my other cars (x6m, 370z). And it's all I have.

The only snag I've had is that the "service engine soon" and engine picture, light illuminated after the tune. The local stealership said that happens when there is an electrical or mechanical error. I told them my battery died and they said this is normal and should reset itself in a day or two.

Had anyone had this happen? Any opinions would be appreciated...

As far as power...

Jury is still out. I have not tested the car after the tune yet. As far as butt dyno, I think it feels better. I still have the cats and only Dinan rear exhaust, pulley and intake. I know my gains are not maximized using stage 2 flash. I'm not sure if I want the monetary outlay of a HFC system with resonators, and I've ruined cars with HFC's in the past with drone and rasp. The shifts seem to hit harder...I'll have to give a more detailed report once I've done a test and raced some friends cars.
