Let us know how it goes! Thanks!

 

Yea i for sure will once the damn dealer picks up or returns my phone calls , their starting off on a good foot

 

I'm willing to bet a dealership will not touch your car if you have removed the dash already.
Personally, with the whole Takata deal going on right now, I would buy an aftermarket steering wheel and delete the airbag.

The idea of an airbag sending metal shrapnel through my neck is enough for me to just rely on my seatbelt in the event of an accident.

 

yea well from what ive read it was only the passenger side airbag that was the big issue, I made my appt for Wednesday of this week so we will see how that goes

 

UPDATE: Okay so I dropped my car off at dealer this morning and they just called that it's done , about to go pick it up and see how everything looks , took roughly 3 hours seems about right if he took his time

 

Got the car back and looked over everything and it all seemed to be back in great shape , one small scuff but hardly noticeable , they also reflashed the Ecm for that old recall also , I reinstalled my gauges and CD player and everything is good to go , glad to say I survived this one

 

#1 you should be tuned

#2 if you are tuned you should have not let them flash the car

#3 go get re-tuned

 

I'm not tuned , Ecu has stock map on it , I have all my bolts ons and everything car is ready for a tune but CBRD is on vaca till I think the 25th until then I can't make an appt , and trust me if I was tuned they wouldn't touch it

 

Nice!
I do hope they asked for permission to flash first anyway... they are not supposed to perform reflashes... even recalls... without express permission first.

 

Yup, you're lucky that you aren't tuned yet.

That ecu reflash Recall was due to complaints of the stock cat failure after a certain rpm. I believe it changes the fuel map slightly or limits your rev limiter.

Once you get tuned, that reflash will go away anyway.

Yes she did tell me that it called for a reflash I told them to go ahead , and yes I know how tuning works and reglashes that it will wipe everything out , like I said tho I'm untuned at the moment so no biggie , but yea it has to do with the cat but the car seems to run better but could be placebo lol

 

Planning on dumping all my fluids this weekend and once Chad is ready at CBRD I'll be down for a tune

 

Cool, just was curious. Mitsubishi is very explicit about not flashing any cars without permission first (Even non evos).
Yeah mostly placebo. You'll see a real difference after the tune though

 

Yea im pretty stoked about the tune , cant wait to see what he can get out of her, hoping for over 300whp , as long as I hit that on his mustang dyno I know its making decent numbers for bolt ons - 93oct

 

I'm glad the dealership didn't screw up the reflash. Our local dealership here screwed up 2 Evos trying to flash the updated ROM to the ECU. One of the owners took the issue all the way up to Mitsubishi of NA which sent the dealership scrambling for a fix.
