pocket logger? I appreciate any information or threads to read. Thanks guys.

You can save your stock rom to your pc before you load the jestre rom then you have the ability of switching back whenever you want.
Yes pull the rom of your car, save it as a .hex file. Do a few logs, send a copy of your stock rom and logs to jestre and he will modify your stock rom and send it back....Its simple

You should definitely contact John, and he'll let you know what to do. What mods do you have? In my case, I didn't really need to send him any logs since my car is mostly stockish at this point (drop-in filter and mbc only), so I got a base map from him.
However, it's my understanding that he will work with you (again def. have to talk to him directly) after you load the map to make improvements specific to your car based on data that you log.
I know my buddy cij911 has been doing a bunch of logging after loading John's map and John has helped him to make various changes to the map based on that data.

I dont exactly know when or where as of yet. I talked to him on the phone I told him I was putting in my cams next month and I wish he could road/dyno tune my car. He told me he was planning a trip up this way soon as there is much interest in his expertise. I thought he told me he'd be in the maryland/DC area which I wouldnt mind the trip. But mabey if we can get enough of us together hell come up our way closer. Im in PA/NJ as well I know EvoDan2004 is definately in for this as well. If you guy's PM me i'll call him and see if we can get somthing going.

well I'm near pittsburgh so when and where would play a big part. Plus I don't drive my
car in the winter (I know, I know) so I'm getting close to the point where I'm gonna be
putting it away. Hit me up if you get something together.

FWIW, there is a thread over in the "Evo Vendor Parts & Tuning Review" section: Jestr E-Flash Experience.
I left a post there about my experience working with John. I'm definately a satisfied customer.

That doesn't seem like very much compared to other ECU re-flashes I have heard of on this forum. I have heard of more like 40-45 whp gain from a decent ECU re-flash on a stock setup?
If Jestr is so good why isn't he getting 40-45 whp gains on a stock setup? Or does he and people are just misquoting the numbers?

Well those people arent getting 40whp off of a Eflash, if you can show me that then im switching tuners right now...MAYBE 40whp off of a CUSTOM tune not an EFlash. Jestr tunes my car and he always will . I compared his and another "bigtime" tuner on this site, Jestr for the win.
