that could be true..

I'm getting my ASP pullies installed probably this week, therefore to me the reflash on my 03 is a mute point.

i hope it works out for you but don't be fooled into thinking pulleys will solve the recall problem. the flash not only appears to rob 60-75hp...it limits the benefit of hp creating mods.

pre and post dyno are a must.

When I called Kleemann I was asked if my car had the recall done yet because he said the ECU would be locked not allowing them to upgrade the software.

By the way what track did you go to?

as much as i wish it weren't true, many bone stock cars have lost that much power...documented by post flash dyno and 1/4mile runs. all the info is scattered throughout the forum.
