Pics and video, please!
Working on this one stay tunned. I'm still waiting for Church's automotive to send me the Dyno results via email. I only have copy of the final numbers in paper, but they forgot to provide me with the baseline before tuning.

My reviews of Flash Pro:

I'm happy with the flash pro and tuning. The changes are night and day!!! My car feels extremely responsive, It's taking me a few days to get used to my car, as it feels like I'm driving a new one

Flash Pro and tuning DRASTICALLY modifies the way the engine handles ignition retard from throttle tip in, so you get WAY more torque at partial throttle and the car will just easily get to speed without having to floor it.

I'm learning that it's very normal for it to feel way different. You'll also notice more sensitive throttle response, MUCH faster rev drop and it might be hard to get used to how fast it drops between gears.

Armo- i see you have LED turn signals bulbs(saw it in the other 8th forum) is it PnP? or did you have to mod it? doing the small mods first before moving up to your level :corngrin:

Thanks for the review and the updates. Yea, there is a lot of pedal travel on the clutch so I can imagine smooth shifts being a lot tougher to perform.

Sup Brown Bear!!! Oh Snaps I had no idea that my car is roaming around at the 8th forum :) that is awesome LOL... joon joon was the one who did my lights, and it wasn't just Pnp, he had to do some custom wiring with a pair of resistors. You can check them out here:

I'm with you on that one brother, smooth shifts is a lot tougher to perform, there are times that you will jerk just a little, but it's all part of the new transitioning from a non tuned to a tuned car. Especially when you're so used to driving a certain way, and boom you get your car tuned, and it's a whole new beast!!!

How did the tuning go Kevin? I would have thought Church would be able to pull more than 208 out of your car, but that is still very solid.

Yeah the problem is I don't have a full Cat Back, as I'm currently waiting for either Borla or Invidia exhaust. I only have the Injen Axle back, so I'm sure I would be able to gain more.
