What I don't understand is why this would make a difference to someone getting a flash or any significant level of mods.

At Works they reflashed my ECU with the newer version that the evo 9s came with. Mine was one of the first, purchased first week it came out, and most likely had the earliest ECU version.
The latter evo 9s ecu was modified in the oil pump to engage earlier or something like that. So mine got updated with that also.

Just got mine a week ago, I always thought it was hawaii for the rusty manifolds as our rain contains alot of acid. I remeber looking at my frinds 8 and yep it was rusty.. and I was reading a few post back about a blueish, kinda silverish color and yep.. it's true.. I dnt have a camera sorry. to me the color looks like a fish and indeed feels coated.. it reminds me of my RS*R I had on my Z33..
