our ecu is tricky and it will show gains on the dyno overtime just not right away , as far as ecu type mods i guess we will have to wait and see

i wudnt mind gettin the works flash either...except wont it kill our factory warranty? considering its a new car theres another 4 years left of engine warranty

like other stuff im not too worried about but ecu flash, wont it affect engine + drive train warranty?

which is really expensive to fix.

stuff like intake and others have lower risks cuz it affects less things (unless u didnt get hydro shield for ur CAI)

you shouldnt have to worry about a reflash messing up your warranty. rarely will a dealer take the time to check the ECU for a reflash, most of the time if needed the dealer just flashes the ECU with the latest version or back to stock in which case works will re-flash it for free.

its honestly the best bang for your buck right now out of every mod you can get. with that it wont be any question in you noticing a difference

its not the fact of better or worse gas mileage, its the fact that you get little to no performance gain. do some research for a thread with a guy on here that did a before and after times on video of with and without.

if you want noticeable gains get a flash and dont waste your time with a timing module or piggy

It has been my experience that the RRM timing Control Box (on my Canadian Lancer GTS Sportback) increases overall powerband but I believe it slightly decreases your fuel economy on top of advancing the ignition timing.
