Flash with and without mods
I am planning on heading down to WORKS for a weekend (cause Hella is playing a show in S.F. and my bands recording our album in Sactown) and I wanted to get my ECU flashed since I would be down there.
Here's where the problems lie: The only thing I am thinking I will have done is a cat-back exhaust, but I know within the next month I will have the ARC airbox and a downpipe with cat-delete. Should I get it flashed for all three mods, or would it hurt the motor with the tuning set for those three mods but me not have them for 2-3 weeks?

WORKS is able to "pre-flash" for some modifications (such as the exhaust). You may experience a small decrease in potential power output in the interim (but it will be an improvement over stock). Once your modifications are added, your power will be where it should be (versus ~95% beforehand). Please give us a call if you would like to setup an appointment or have any other questions.

Contact
I went to the WORKS website and sent an e-mail requesting more information about their P2e FLASH and received no responses...frustrating. I've got an injen intake w/IC pipes and a magnaflow exhaust and was wondering what gains I can expect. I've also heard about horsepower losses when adding an intake; is this true of my injen?

Thanks Jamie, I've contacted WORKS twice by phone and both times received great service; even after asking Oliver a long list of questions he was polite and seemed very informed in the technical workings of the Evo. I look forward to getting my P2R flash!

Just wanted everybody to know I received my P2R Flash from WORKS and am impressed. Part throttle is "greatly" improved and my boost stays at 1.40 - 1.45 all the way to redline....IT'S CRAZY!!!
It's nice to have a car that you know is crazy fast and yet built with some sense of reliability.....thanks WORKS!!!
