It has always been $600. You don't really need reflash with just intake and exhaust. Waste of money IMHO.
Get more mods if you wanna do it.

I agree and disagree with Kev. I had only done just an intake and exhaust when Technosquare worked on my car and it netted me an additional 10-15 hp and torque, made my throttle response MUCH quicker, upped the rev limiter to 8k and keeps the throttle wide open through redline, and fixed my airflow (was running too rich). Probably the best mod I've done so far. If intake and exhaust is all your doing then a reflash is the next logical step. If other mods are planned, but its going to be a year before you do any of it, then a flash still makes sense. If you're going to get the flash and then install HFCs or test pipes, then you're doing things out of order.

I know wat you're tryin to say. Hell, I got TS reflash when I only had intake and exhaust too.
But I'm just trying to say if he gets reflash now, he'll have to pay additional $150 everytime he gets another mod and do re-reflash. That was what I was trying to mean by 'waste of money'.

Damn u went ALL out on modding ur car. Unfortunately ima broke *** marine so I wouldn't be able to mod my car for a while. So I was just curious about reflash. Probably can't even get that for a while.

Bolton's Classic Wheels man. Why pay $200 when they do the same job for $45?

I haven't fixed mine yet, but Andy told me to talk to Mia at DTM Autobody. Their website is http://www.dtmautobody.com/index2.html and the phone number is 626-448-0903. I've just been to busy to get it done before the end of the year. I'll be taking care of it soon though. (BTW, this is wear Andy took his).
