I haven't got one yet, because i haven't purchased my buscher/warrtalon package yet. (and the package comes with a flash)

I voted NO. I do not want to mess with my ECU. I prefer a piggy back that I can remove when/if I have to take the car to the dealer. I considered a flash, but changed my mind. Aside from messing with the ECU, a flash does not give me two maps for 91 octane and 100 octane. I also considered an SAFC, but I did not want to have an mbc added to control boost. Plus the SAFC does not control timing directly from what I read.
I will be getting an Xede on the 24th. I am having Tuning Technologies install and tune it. I would have loved to have Shiv do it, but he is too far away. A local tuner is better for me since I can go back to them in case problems crop up. From what I read, TT has an excellent reputation.

Maybe in the future i will get the Xedeflash, but for now it will be the basic Xede.

nope. not yet. when i come back from the air force, im goin to fully build my engine...keep 2.0 but have all the internals and everything else...and then tune
no, mainly cuz i am happy with my car stock, all i have is a catless greddy ti exhaust with stock downpipe and no flash or anything.
i dont believe a flash will justify for the mod plans that i have for my evo, if i ever mod i want it to have at least 400 hp and a different turbo, i dont want to max out the stock one by any add on's, bolt on's or any flashes
i know ill have to get tuned if i go over 400 hp but by then ill getta standalone
another thing is that i cant afford anything to break in my evo, and i cant loose warranty, im sure that by the time i get closer to paying off my car ill start to mod, but not right now
