Something to keep in mind, you can't tune a reflash by yourself, something like EcuTek requires a trained professional in order to make any changes to the tune.

I trained professional will know how to panic properly if an error occurs

haha lol evo. thats kinda like these so called A.S.E(Ask Somebody Else) Certified mechanics we supposed to leave our cars with if anything goes wrong

We're not talking about an A.S.E. mechanic. We're talking about a professional tuner. There's a difference.

But amby is right - you can't self tune stuff like EcuTek right out of the box, but I think they do offer software if you're adventurous enough to try and DIY it.

I think you have to pay separately for the software but I'm not sure. I've heard that you get unlimited reflashes/cheap reflashes after you've paid for the system and the license.

Yeah, the software is separate.

won't happen. NA doesn't tune that way. Most I have seen from tuning alone (stock car, no bolt-ons other than a piggyback) is maybe 8% increase (and thats usually on a v6 or v8). You generally gain very little by re-tuning a stock NA car....but you almost always get better fuel economy and pick up 1-3hp/torque across the rpm band.

Here is a place in Tucson that shows some pricing for EcuTek flash and tuning.

Finding out prices is cool and all, but they have yet to update us on any type of progress yet..so until i hear that they have the flash done or in some form of R n D then i can careless.

WORKS is currently workin on a flash tune for 08 lancers

Yeah, but it's a slow process. They've been working on it since the car first came out. But I'm still eagerly awaiting it since it seems like the best option available.

Not doggin out RRM (i bought a pulley and intake from them and i'm happy with the two) but people keep talking about how they're not getting any results from it. My cousin has a 2007 civic with just intake and Hondata reflash and you can really and i mean really feel the difference. Both products have the same price range but i'm looking for a greater gain for the price.

In conclusion i'm VERY interested in this WORKS reflash! does anyone have any info on it at all? as in dynos or anyone on the inside?

Well don't forget your friend's car is a Honda and the reflash is probably the best mod you can do short of forced induction.

lan08

Very true because i had a prelude with just hondata reflash, CAI,2.5" catback, and some DC headers and i took WRX's like nada.

I just hope this reflash will give us enough gains to REALLY notice a difference in power. By the looks of it, i think it's gunna be a good mod due to the time put into it.
Anyone know when it's comin out or any testing results on it?

Gts_BlackJoker

Jesus, i still cant believe ECUtek hasn't had any updates with our lancer...

And before someone says contact Sean...I already tried.

Also, with all the ecu work on the EVO...(yes i know its a evo blah blah) you would have thought someone would have given the lancer a quick glance
