Reflash best bet for one time tuning?

I could see buying some of the more high end engine management if you like to tune for different grades of gas, different boost levels, or are changing parts on a regular basis, but if you want to tune once and be done am I correct in assuming that a reflash would be the way to go? If you were to do all the mods you want to do (intercooler, exhaust, intake, etc) in one shot and not change anything down the road a simple ecu reflash tuned on a dyno seems like the most cost effective option. Anything I might be overlooking? Turbotrix would most likely be my tuner of choice since they are located within a reasonable distance.

I think we are about 2hrs from you.. A reflash is alot less expensive then standalone.. on an 04 minus cams your whp would be right around 300whp with cams add about 35 whp. Depending on other supporting mods .. you could be a bit higher or lower. Hope this helps.. See you soon

I had mine tuned by them and was just over the 300whp mark like they had mentioned. They definitely do a good job and I'll be getting another reflash once I get my cams, FMIC and alky ready to go in

Another thumbs up for discounted reflashes for repeat customers too!
