Mail in flash question

My ECU is due at Dynoflash today via FedEx. I have a time sensitive question that I'm trying to get answered directly; so far no returned email or phone calls. I need my ECU back tomorrow since I have only this two day window to be w/o my Evo. The answer to my question may delay the job.

Is the " I ship all ECU's out the same day I get them" thing reliable?

All ecus recieved go out the same day I get them Mon - Thursday

I usually have a 11 am cut off so it is impornat to make sure it gets there in the am

On occasion I am not in town on Fridays due to tuning trips so it is best to check with me if you have to send it on a thursday and usually if I get it on Friday ther are extra shipping charges to get it on Sat

My question had to do with PayPal. I'm a bit new to it, and I used the email contact listed in this forrum; I didn't see the one on the website until this morning. Is that going to be a problem?

My ECU should have arrived today, from Rob in VA Beach. I left the tracking info at home, so I don't know if made it or not yet.

hey, I also had a question. Is it better to catch up with Al to road tune the car or is it ok "worth it" , to just send it in? I mean I just want the easiest but best for the car.

Mail-in flash is easiest.

Road tune is best.

Mail-in flash is definitely worth $199, but if you get the chance for a road tune, then take it. Al will be in the DC area this weekend doing road tunes.

My FedEx tracking shows it was delivered & signed for 2:21 pm. The website says that all ECU's ship out the same day they get them. I can't find the part about the 11am cutoff, I'm still looking. So I wasted my money getting it there today?

I guess I need to find a way to get to work on Wednesday.

He will flash it and send it back if he has time before Fedex stops running.

Just got off the phone with dynoflash, it will be going out tomorrow. Getting it there AM is necessary if time is an issue (like me).

Btw - I have a tiny suggestion for you - PM is a nice way to pass chit chat back and forth

This is a tech form

Also - when you leave a phone message - leave a contact number on your voice mail so your call can be returned

It's very simple. You can get instructions on here or at http://dynoflash.com .

What do you mean the truth? We always say yes. Who has ever said no?

However, the chances of them looking and knowing how to find it are extremely slim. Also, even if they can tell the ECU has been modified, they can't tell WHAT has been modified.
