TSB for 2008 EVO X MR
I had the dealer reflash my car yesterday for (TSB 08-22-002) for MR
(TSB 08-13-006 or 08-13-005 for the GSR) The reflash will mess the car up for about three days till it relearns everything but right off the bat I was averaging 21.5 MPG in the city, where I normally get 18.5 ish and I got 27 on the freeway when I normally got 24.4-- (The Best I Ever Got).
So the reflash helped tons on gas mileage. I also have a full 3" TBE system w/ cat delete, drop-in Blitz filter, and a hardpipe intercooler kit which the reflash has had no issues with.
The tech hooked me up with the reflash even though I wasnt getting the DTC P1320 code. The car seems to idle a lot better and the AFR seems to be more where it should have been when the car was made! I believe it bumps it up from 9.5 to 10.0 from what the tech was getting on his laptop. So it helps and was worth it.

They gave you a version of that Tsb yes but the 08-13-006 is the GSR version for the tranny difference, but the flash you got is the MR version and yes the little it leans it out helps a lot on the gas mileage as well as probably adding a few ponies

The idle was trash on my car b4 the reflash. It didn't start that way either just after 3k miles or so. Even when I flash Cobb's Ap stg 1, the idle was crappy and it chugged gas.
After the dealer flash, and my flash to the stg 1 map again, the car is rock solid. Idle is perfect. Still chugs gas thou...
