Newb Reflash question

I did a quick search for reflash and stock reflash. Just a quick question is it worth it to reflash while stock? I plan on being this way for a little while, any major benefits of doing it?

Dont waste you money, Wait untill you do some mods worth flashing. I mean you can do you rev limiter, speed limiter, 2 step, etc etc, but You can have all that aswell for the same price when you have mods flashed/tuned in. Talk to Jester he will help you out. Tell him Dante sent you.

I agree with the last poster, however a lot of guys on the forums seem to be REALLY happy with just a drop in air filter and re-tune.

Yeah true, I can see that. If you dont plan on doing it for a awhile a 40-70 dollar drop in and flash will tickle your fancy

Some can get 30 HP on stock motor, for $75.00 that's the best Mod for the money anywhere.

I say go for it if you plan to stay stock with just a flash for at least 6 months. You will get less boost taper (if the flasher modifies your boost hoses) and it will pull much much smoother. It just sucks when you get a flash, then get a couple parts and need another flash, then get a couple more parts and need another flash. Try to limit the amount of times you get flashed to save money. But you can flash now, save up for a bunch of parts to install together and then get one flash for a big nice improvement!

Just my thoughts... I rode for about 5 months with just a cat-back, drop in, and boost gauge. It kept me happy... but you always want more you know

For what its worth, if you buy a WORKS Flash we will reflash your ECU for free if you get your upgrade parts through us. So you can flash it with the stock setup, then when you add exhaust, cams etc.. we'll reflash it for those mods at no extra cost.
