reflashed
Hey guys, my STi has been reflashed! 6 days later and still havent heard any pinging. As far as effects, it seems like there's less of a sudden strong pull at 4k, but the car pulls a bit stronger all the way through instead. No complaints so far. I'm happy that Subaru came out with a fix. I asked my customer service rep what was changed in the reflash, but she said that we may never know..... mysterious. Hopefully we'll find out someday soon

Move to a state where you can get sunoco 94 at the pump or fill up with a mixture of 100oct at the pump or run a mixture of toluene, as stated many times in this very thread. You want 300hp? You run the required octane to give you the detonation protection that you need for 300hp. Its that simple. Am I the only one that gives props to subaru for putting out an aggressive ecu in the usdm STi? Would you all be bitching MORE if it was the other way around? Yup! |

Don't get me wrong I am not complaining but it seems that I knew of quite a few tuners/people who could get 300hp out of their 2.0L WRX with the same components that the STi has [shrug]. |

Sac people?
Anyone around the Sacramento area doing/done a reflash? BTW, I am bringing my car into Maita for a reflash on 9/9, as I will be out of town for the next 2 weeks.

"caveat emptor" let the buyer beware.
Or my own favorite, "ignorance is not an excuse" you're the consumer, it's your job to do your research before you buy. |

Am I the only one here that doesn't want to do the reflash until the dyno results are out? Has anyone taken their reflashed STi to the dyno!?! If there is any dyno links, please let me know.

What if the car makes 300-300 on 91 after reflash? This will probably get you a bit more HP and torque on 94 Are you CA guys still gonna whine to get the 305-305 like other states then? OMG my car makes 299

its the seller's responsibility to back up waht they claim. do you know this car would detonate before you buy it? what if you are the FIRST STi owner in the US? there is no way you can tell. we are the consumer, it's our job to let them know they can't lie and get away with it |

Yeah your right, next time I go to buy a car, I'm going to take and dyno it during the test drive, thereby trashing an unbroken-in motor. |
