93 Octane Brain flash DYNO results
My "Friend" has a bone stock silver EVO with just the WORKS 93 octane brain flash. The results were very impressive. On the downside the a/f ratio device was not working properly, so they were not able to get an accurate read out. They tried switching the cable out and it didn't make a difference. The box was rather ragged looking and I'm not sure I would want it reading a/f ratios on my friends car anyway. The DYNO chart speaks for itself. If there was an a/f ratio problem it would have shown in the numbers. Way to go WORKS!! 
Next week he is going to send his ECU back to WORKS for the P2. He will again dyno the car at the same place and post the results overlapping this P1 result.
Conditions:
Absolute barometric pressure: 29.96 in.Hg.
Vapor pressure: 0.078 in.Hg.
Air Temperature: 79.6 F

Because the A/F ratio monitor was not working properly I have removed the a/f lines from the chart, so that it doesn't mislead anyone. Here are my friends 2 runs today with just the WORKS P1 93 Octane flash on top of a stock EVO with exede.

So are you saying that on the same day and the same dyno the Works reflash made 22hp more than an an Evo with the Xede?
You say baseline with Xede...was it your friends car that had the Xede before the reflash? If this was two different cars on different days it's can be pretty misleading info...especially if it is different dynos.

Just installed the P2 flash and all I can say is "weeeeeeeee" Will have it on the dyno next week and have them overlay the results on top of my P1 results that are shown above. Way to go WORKS!! The car is noticiably faster and actually seems smoother than the P1 flash. Install was easy! After sliding the metal clamps up on the hose, I used a flat head screw driver and pushed the hoses off and used a puff of windex on the new hoses and they slid right on. The new T hose assembly that WORKS supplied looks IDENTICAL to the factory one, so there is no need to worry that the dealer will notice. Brain flash P2 is a total stealth mod that has real results. Can't wait to dyno next week

Just installed mine last night as well. The long flat-blade screwdriver trick is exactly what I did, and the clamp pops right back. Haven't driven the car yet, but am getting ready to head to work and will give you seat-of-the pants and boost level details later today.
I am planning on having the car dynoed next week some time and will also have some numbers off of a dyno dynamics dyno.

I am psyched.
There is no awd dyno here either.
Gotta go call WORKS.

The P2 I installed last night is a 93 octane version. I am running a Works Exhale pipe, and I do have a boost gauge installed.
So far the results have been impressive. Very smooth power delivery, and whether from a roll-on or standing start, I get a spool-up with a very brief spike to right around 20psi then it holds boost at 19psi through redline if I keep it WOT.
Overall drivability seems very similar to the P1, although maybe a tad smoother. The power increase is nice, and I had an e36 M3 that rolled-up on me this morning, and I rolled away and left him easily. I slowed, but he hung back to avoid the reality of public humiliation
Btw- The new hose assembly comes with everything including new hose clamps. The assembly appears to be a factory part to me. You can always rely on Works to put together a really buttoned-down package, and their P2 product is another fine example!
Keep up the good Work(s) guys!

David,
I am assuming the answer to this is going to be "we always recommend a boost gauge whenever any modification is done to affect boost", however if I plan on doing no engine / exhaust mods other than the reflash - would the P1 or P2 reflash be safe without a boost gauge?
I am in Denver, CO as well, and we see about 4 psi atmospheric pressure less than the guys at sea level.
Does anyone know of a good stealth mounting spot for a boost gauge in the Evo? I just came over from a WRX - and there were more mounting options it seems
