Ya, you sure saved a lot, how much is that re-flash with the cams, 500, then something else, 500 more. Good deal! Your a bright one

same here but I spent $510 and drove 30 minutes for the P2. Can't wait to get cams

FWIW, Upgrade reflashes are for a nominal fee.

You could just switch over to the Light side, and tune it yourself with free software using the Xede. Then when you upgrade, you can tune it nominally without having to either get reflashed.

I see a lot of people slamming the xede & shiv.

I still havent decided which way to go the electronic mods, but a reflash cost about 500, then if & when you make another significant mod, you have to pay again. These guys arent going to do this for free. I dont know if any type of boost controller is necessary with a reflash, but if you do, that will cost you more. I would want a EBC so I dont have to worry to much about overboosting in various gears. That EBC comes in the xede. It sounds like a wash to me. But if your only requiring 1 reflash, it is less expensive. Yeah, the people that own these cars are only going to make a few mods??????????????

Soon I would think shiv & his boys should incorporate a/f logging via a WB O2 sensor, then you can log & remap you own car for city driving & have the xede control your a/f to some pre-dyno'd target a/f. It's very simple & should be the next step in their software.

I like the adaptability / tunability of the xede. However, I do hear a lot of complaing about shiv's stuff being late.

Then again, you hear a lot of complaining on this website.

Hell, kleenex should sponsor this site for all the cry babies as well as tampax for all the bleeding pussies out there.

Vishnu stuff is good, but their attitude says something else..... its not cool when they talk down about other car enthusiasts just because their cars happen to be less expensive than their market focus......
