I will try that trick tonight and get back to you guys. That would be awesome if this works. Then I can test before and after on 2 cars.

Also, does the key transmit the code electrically or through a short-distance radio signal? I.e., could you use a duplicate key but keep the other car's key near the ignition switch to transmit the code?

259 seems kinda low, these cars are making almost that stock, maybe it was the dyno? This is why we need a STOCK dyno, and then a flashed Dyno.

It's too bad he needed to add an SAFC to get better driveability and better a/f ratio in the midrange.
Understandable though...you can't expect a mail order ecu reflash or chip to have the best a/f ratio for top performance and overall driveability considereing every Evo will be a little different.
Most importantly - the customer is super happy with the results - loves the way his car drives and is very satisfied with his purchase
BTW, was the boost curve changed at all? Since Works didn't want their boost logged when they were setting up the ground rules with Shiv I'm sure the boost curve must be at least altered. Does it hold boost longer without tapering?
I'm interested in the reflash for it's stealthiness...but I question it's true performance output.

I got the the Works flash I had a bushur 3" turbo back at first with grounding kit, monster flat panel, and I put down a best 270hp at the wheel with 94 octane on an early June mid 60's 80% humidity. Ideal for a max power situation on a Mustang all wheel drive dyno. I sold off the Buschur and went with a different set up not that different still a turbo back nothing else changed. I went back to the dyno for Microsoft X-Box it was a free run. I came in exactly the same 270hp at the wheels I was pretty bummed but the tech told me the following. Before there was a dip in the power curve that was gone smooth all the way to redline. There is a higher rev limit which he never took advantage of and finally it was 98 degrees that day and like 30% humidity. Now the facts are the following low humidity will screw your A/F ratios period also that high heat will kill HP like nothing else so he was still surprised to see the car come in at those numbers so I am going to wait till things cool down again and go in to dyno at about the same conditions as my first run.

Hey, guess what ? I have the Vishnu stage 0 plus and I work across the street from the awd dyno (Fame Automotive)... we can have our own "test" of the xede vs the Works re-flashed ECU, then post the results including a/f and boost levels on the board. What do you think ? I'm sure a lot of people will be very interested with the outcome.

The last sentence I definately don't understand. What do you mean you question it's true performance output? Look at the dynos.
