I am looking to flash my Evo X MR and was looking at AMS I already have the AMS single catback exhaust and AMS intake, but am unsure about the flash? From what i read everyone is happy with AMS, but i just wanted to know if for $750 im getting the best? Please help?

 

where do you live?

depending on location I'd get a custom tune, 750 will get you a custom tune, I know my custom tune from Dyno4mance in Georgia was 750. Most people who tune with Ecutec will match the 750 price as well.

 

I live in Chicago, what does a custom tune consist of? what numbers are you getting? What's your opinion on getting the flash from a company like AMS

 

you live in Chicago!.... dude you are right down the street from AMS, go get a custom tune from them and not a mail in flash.

A custom tune consists of strapping your car to the dyno and tuning your car to what mods you currently have, you can expect 50-60 wheel horse power and with a company like AMS they will get it right.

seach my user name to find the post i made about my custom tune.

 

What happens if i want to add on mods to my car eventually...? Intercooler, cam shifts and maybe a 35 r one day? will i have to keep tuning it each time?

 

From what I hear is that you're going to have to get your car tuned again.

 

When I had my VIII I was going to put everything in the car and then get it tuned. Saves me money but I don't know how the car would have reacted to the drive without being tuned.....maybe like a regular ol 4 banger.

 

What about if i just get the Intercooler and piping? will that require a custom flash...

 

750 should get you the custom tune I think. I am getting my car custom tuned at AMS this Thursday after tomorrow

 

i just got my car booke din thursday at AMS... I will see u there!

 

When I was looking for a tune, most of the performance shops, AMS, Perrin or Works offer a custom tune to whatever parts you have bought at a set price. I know flashes were around $500 something including shipping and handling.

 

wait for ecuflash to be ready... then get a tune without the crappy ecutek licensing restrictions. I'd bet AMS offers them when it's available.

 

A flash will just show up as dead battery when Mitshibishi look it up on their computer right?

 

hey do you know of any evo meets in Illinois.

 

wait for ecuflash. 750 is rediculous for a tune
