Interesting...if they have learned/copied the tuning inputs from other "flashers", then i'd say its a deal and a half.

That is an excellent price. I love cut-throat competition. America ROCKS!

Very interesting! Let's see how it stacks up vs. the DynoFlash & Xede.

For $75 it says you only get rid of boost cut, fuel cut, speed limiter, and get an increased rev limit. For actual tuning you have to pay an additional $125, bringing the cost even with Dynoflash and TurboTrix mail-in flashes.

it says Raise Rev limiter (Stock is 7600rpm)

So how much higher rpm can you go with a stock turbo? I have stock ecu and I hit over 8k rpm if I remembered correctly.

Exactly! I have Dynoflash (custom tune) and couldn't be happier. The power is incredible and Al has helped me with MANY things along the way; things as simple as choosing mods and where to buy them. He's spent many hours, both on phone and via the interweb, helping me. Great customer service if you ask me!

But, I'm sure someone will come along who doesn't like Al (for one reason or another) and will suggest someone else. It's all subjective. They all give results and they are all worth the money. I have nothing agains TT, or any other tuner for that matter, so it's completely a matter of opinions.

Best of luck!

Thats correct. Dynoflash offers the Stage Rev flash which does the same think for $75. Turbotrix and Dyno offer a mail in flash for $200 which is the exact same thing as Evostore's "Advanced" flash

Both of the mail in flashes are great and will get you around the same amount of whp. It's not like one mail in flash could yield 30-40 more whp than the other

Jestrfied

My car is tuned by a smaller, less well known tuner. He has all the stages you would normally find, with a special bonus subscription package after the initial purchase, for another small fee, you can get unlimited reflashes as you mod your car for 6 months. You can check the site out at www.jestrtuning.com for more info. He has been tuning DSM's for ten years now, everything from repairing older ecus to reflashing the evo's. I have had some very bad experiences in my 15 years of driving and it has been a pleasure doing business with Jestr. He is always there when I need him, and I do not have to worry about waiting to install a whole bunch of parts at once. It's nice because you can see what kind of gain you get from each mod as you do them with the subcscription service. I have to keep it semi brief cause I'm at work, but take a look-see, I promise you won't be dissappointed.

I've had both dynoflash and turbotrix flash. Both products are very good. In the end I would go for the tuner that is a better "people person". I have a turbotrix flash now!
