I have AAM's flash and it did exactly what I was looking for:
-good power gains (proper AF, timing...)
-raised RPM limiter
-removed top speed limiter
I also liked them b/c they were super fast in doing the flash...I'm in Seattle; I sent them the ECU overnight, they received it the next day, did the flash, and shipped it back out the same day --> my Z was down for less than 3 days!

Remote flashes don't get my vote. I understand that shops may not be local, but using a generic flash on my car is a no no. Since every car is different, who knows what a flash that was done for another car will work the greatest on your car. This is not to say that it doesn't work, cause obviously people do it, I just don't think it's the best way.

from talking w/ AAM, there's not much of a difference between cars when they have the same mods...that's why even if ppl live next to them, they still offer their normal Flash - if someone wants a dyno-tuned flash, AAM can do that; they say that they'll usually squeeze out a bit more power over their regular flash.

I have not flashed my 350Z ecu yet, but I did sent the ECU in my EVO to be tuned to turbo-trix, via their mail-in service, and it worked great. I understand that it is always best to have the car put on the dyno and all, but when one is not available, a mail-in flash is not a bad idea! Good luck!
