Yeah I think I talked to you at that benefit for Courtney show or whatever it was called. They don't do custom flashes there though, just tuning with an AFC. I believe when getting a custom flashed tune they can adjust your timing in addition to your AFRs which makes a big difference on my car. I still dont know what I want to do. I was all about the reflash until I started throwing P0300 misfire codes. I got the upgraded dealer flash on Tuesday which Mitsu says fixes the problem but from what the EVO community says, it doesnt fix it for good. But most guys get the code daily or once a week and the flash makes it 10 times better but doesnt fix it for good. Well I get the code about every 1100 miles lately so if I wind up getting it every 10-12k miles I can deal with it because I'll just go to Autozone and delete the code out or buy a Creader and do it myself. That way I wont lose my custom flash. But at the same time, I am thinking the AFC may be the way to go while my car is still under warranty. That way if Mitsu comes up with a guaranteed fix and that happens to involve a flash, I wont lose my custom tune. I'm 50/50 on the whole thing. I'll have to get in touch with SBR and see what they can do for me and their pricing. Ben Benson knows those guys really well and told me to go up sometime with him and talk to his boy Marco that works there and said he might be able to hook me up. We'll see.....

I forgot I got some pretty good pics of my EVO along with two of my new friends from down here in Chambersburg so I'll post a couple after work as I dont have the net at my new place yet.

PS: Avatar is only 75x75 pix. I entered the URL from photobucket like it said but didnt work. I've never entered a URL for an avatar before though. I thought that was odd. Any suggestions? Pix to come in a couple....
