seeing as how the static nature of the reflash doesn't let you retune if you go to a stage 2 turbo setup, for example.

I'm having mine done free by a friend and could probably guarantee a higher hp increase. Not being rude but RRM is way too overpriced for average products that are compareable to APC and other Autozone brands like that.

Well JET offers a reflash for $299 and a lifetime reflash guarantee whenever you add something to your car they will reflash it to your cars upgrades as long as you own your car. its $200 cheaper and GUARANTEED.
i can take a **** in a box and slap a gaurantee on it
sorry just watched tommy boy hahah.... i have heard there is a charge for the reflash on the jet chip. DRC imports was slanging that thing aswhile ago and i thought it was like 399 or so.

I don't remamber the price exactly, but I know it was considerably less than RRM and the fee you payed was the Shipping and thats it. There is a Jet dealer in Fort Worth, and It might be a couple of HP difference (2-3) but for the $ its alot better deal. If you wanted RRM to reflash to your specs you would have to pay the $5?? again. I also know that RRM is a sponsor (vendor) of evolutionm.net but the facts still remain. I'm not trying to diss them but they ARE overcharging the evom users.

unfortunately, it would cost me a lot more than $500 to fly to Fort Worth and search all over a major city trying to find this place, since nobody seems to know how to contact them or order their product. Part of marketing is making your product available. I wanted my engine remapped because it bogged like crap in the hairpins at autocross races. JET wasn't around and the only option I could find ANYWHERE was RRM, so I went with what I could find.
Sorry, just to clarify, I do think that $500 is a lot, but hey in the racing world you want the edge over the competition, and some people pay thousands of dollars to get a carbon fiber seat just to save 10 pounds. So you know, I guess if JET got their name out there they would see more sales over RRM, or maybe they would get abig head and charge $550 too. You never know.
Jet is avalible online and in DFW at Speedtek. Also they are in JC Whitney. They have been around alot longer than RRM and have made a name for themselves ask any local performance shop.

I'm not trying to support Jet but I'm trying to let everyone know that there are other options out there, and that you don't always have to pay top $ for the best. Just Look at the competion before you buy a name.
I'm sure that there are other companies out there that do a better job than Jet and charge less. The $ could make a difference on your next modification in whether you get it or not.
