i know its much easier for me to say this after the fact, but i guess it can be a lesson learned...dont accept and believe what everyone tells you...especially a car salesman
+1 Get everything in writing. Assume nothing.

Why don't you take it to a tuner or send the flash to Al at Dynoflash? They should be able to work out any random misfires. You'll also get increased performance and the car will run better too.

I don't believe ANY tuner will say they can fix the P0300 ...

Well, Mitsu told me it was the P0300 code but they are telling me it's a cold start misfire code caused by my mods. This is the story they are sticking with. They are calling a regional tech or some Mitsu helpline on Monday and these other people are supposed to give them a fix for me. We'll see how that goes. Thanx for all the comments, but i wouldn't get a reflash. Mitsu would just void my warranty if i did that.

You're screwed with the dealer, that's all there is to it. I'd find a good import mechanic in your area, and get used to seeing him.
