Yes, I'd like to know A.S.A.P., so I can plan my road trip to NorCal.

Wilson, sounds promising..
Were there any other modifications done outside of the reflash in order to get the boost management? Like removing the brass restrictor pill in one of the turbo hoses?

thanks,

Well, now I feel dumb. I just asked many of the same questions that have been asked here on another post.

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...threadid=42077

At least this way I will have my questions answered one way or another. Guess I should have looked around first!

spyderturbo,
There was a part placed somewhere , which i forgot to asked the Work group as they were sourced from europe, which is one of the main reasons for the holdup preventing the P2 from getting release to the mass.
You will not be diappointed

Wilson,

How do you like the boost flash? Still feel the same as when you first got it? Any problems, or anything worth mentioning about it?

caymandiver75,
No problems with the new upgrade, just loved that extra power, extremely trackable, believed that it is running in the high 12's, although have not timed it.
0-60 is under 5 secs at this time with my stopwatch, a way different beast than even the P1 original reflash.
Again, for those wanting a stealth mod, not into piggybacks, a must have No disappointments!
Only downside is waiting for their next P3 upgrade, supposedly incorporating cams and other goodies.

Their flash is a none boost type, I have to admit their flash is quite good but since they don't have the boost, I would like to go with what you guys offer.

my mods are listed below.

Hi Trev0006,

Hmmm, that's a tough call. Unfortunately, yes, the WORKS Brain Flash will overwrite whatever code is currently running on your ECU. Of course, if you want to get the WORKS Brain Flash, I'm certainly not going to talk you out of getting it.

As far as your other mods are concerned, we haven't done any testing with those specific products, however I don't expect you will run into any problems. Is there anyone out there who is running the WORKS Brain Flash in conjunction with any of these products who can provide better insight?

Thanks,

Rifkin

I have the B&B Turboback. I didn't buy their cat delete pipe though because it gives a cell. I'll probably just get a 3" HF Cat from Ultimate Racing to keep it legal and not so loud. I've been waiting to get the P2 flash before installing the DP. Hoping the flash will help keep the boost from spiking a with the DP. We'll see.

To bad WORKS doesn't have their full exaust out yet.
